Computer Vitals Display

[StarTrek133]

Hi Everyone

 

Looking for some help and advice .. Working on my new pc build and I see people putting those little displays in there case that uses Aida64 to display the computers Vitals .. 

 

I really like this idea and I am looking at getting the following screen .. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VNX4ZWY/?coliid=I2T204VDYDZP7N&colid=1QK74ECPDNW3C&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it

 

I know if I get a usb header to micro usb plug , i can power the screen off of the one of the unused usb MB headers .. 

 

Here is where i need help .. how would i hook it up ? really didn't want to run an hdmi cable out of my case and into my video card .. plus didn't really want to lose a port on the video card as I am having trouble finding a video card to run everything I currently have .. 

 

So any thoughts / help / advice would be great .. 

 

Was thinking of maybe using a usb to hdmi adapter , but haven't found one that i could run off a usb MB header .. 

 

Let me know and thanks for the help ..

Raspberry Pi?

I think you can program those such that they can do all the stuff you want.

There's an Android app that can remotely monitor your PC's vitals, if you have an old phone you can use that and all you need is a charging cable.

 

There's quite a few different ones, you should look up which one you would want. Or you can use an Android as a secondary monitor.
