A few days ago I posted this same question.
I asked which of the 2 boards I mentioned you would recommend if I wanted to connect 3 screens at 4K60. I asked for a motherboard with these specs as I want a formfactor that is as small as possible. So I’d hoped an extra GPU wouldn’t be necessary. As both boards I mentioned have there pro’s and cons, I wont mention them now. I just have the simple question: what board would you buy if you were me?
Some of you answered that I should go for a motherboard with a better CPU. And I agree.
On the other hand, as it’s also going to be an automation server (as well as a HTPC), It should have GPIO headers which that board doesn’t have.
Also, both boards don’t have 3 digital screen outputs.
What board would you recommend that has an onboard CPU, has at least 1 m.2 slot, is able to handle multiple tasks, has GPIO pins and can handle 3 screens?
If you recommend a pc with an exta GPU, please also recommend a small case. It shouldn’t be bigger than a Gygabyte Brix or a NUC.
It will probably run Ubuntu or another Opensource OS. (feel free to give me other recommendations)
Daisy chainging screens isn’t an option as 2 of the 3 screens will be touchscreens. I haven’t seen tablet size touchscreens that you can daisychain.
Thanks in advance for your recommendations. I look forward to see them.
If I think of something I haven’t mentioned that is important to this built, I will mention them in a reply.
