Hey everyone, I'm thinking about getting a 2600 for a NAS that I'm putting together and I was wondering if anyone has done it before and what did you do for a display solution, since the 2600 doesn't have integrated graphics. I don't necessarily want to buy a new gpu because once FreeNAS is set up, everything will be done through the network. Can't wait to hear options! Thanks all for your time. 

with my 2700x server I threw an old EVGA Geforce GT 710 2gb in there to install ESXi. It was $20 new from EVGA's b-stock store.

Either get a 2400g or a GT 730 and Ryzen 2600.

I don't think the APU is worth it, I lose a lot of power for the graphics that I will barely use.

I think the best option would be get a cheap card like this. Thank you all for your opinions.
