Mining GPU for daily use

tnever

I noticed there are a lot of mining GPUs without display ports made for mining. I'm curious would it be possible for example GTX 1060 to be used on my daily system and output display through my Ryzen 2400G APU?

You would have to mod the bios to some degree or another as they do not have DirectX support as standard. There has been talk about modded BIOS's for these cards coming out but you really have no clue if they work or not.

Too bad. It would be great budget option. Thanks for the info
