Internal secondary display for monitoring

Jpe24

Hi!

 

i was thinking in purchasing a small HDMI display to mount it inside my case. (pic attached)

I’m planning to 3D print a housing and place it bellow the GPU so the display doesn’t look out of place.

 

The video cable will be straight forward, I’m going to drill out a hole in one of my PCI-E slot cover to route the cable to be connected to my GPU.


Sadly for the power cable I’m totally out of USB ports (both internal and external), so I was thinking in hacking a molex or sata power connector to make a microUSB to Molex/SATA and connect it directly to the PSU. Will it be safe to do this? or should I add a voltage regulator between the display and the PSU?
