Small second screen

wallofsound · 11 Sep 2016 at 16:36

Hey everyone,

I've got a DELL S2716DG which is great - but when playing a game i'd like a small screen to display youtube/football etc. I'm after a tablet sized screen that i can affix either to the side of my PC case or the side of my screen. I don't fancy a full sized monitor at i'm not sure it'd fit well on my desk.

It doesn't look like overclockers stock anything like this - anyone got any ideas of decent choices?

Not really got an idea on budget and it'd be great if it was HDMI.

Thanks

What kind of size screen? 8inch, 10inch etc.??

I guess anywhere from 8-13 inches.

Hmm I will have a look as I've been wanting one for ages.

I bought a gechic on lap 1303h. 13" 1080p ips. It's a bit pricey but I love it for my mobile 2nd screen needs.. The bezel is really off-putting and still bugs me a bit but I'm almost past it now.

I find a 17" rotated 90 degrees makes a good side-panel - in fact I have a pair of them flanking my screen for symmetry. Perfect for background youtube or info sites while doing other stuff

One thing to bear in mind is that the cheaper screens of this nature can lack HDCP support - which will also knock out HDCP capabilities for the whole system while they are connected with most of the standards and can also have an effect on some other programs - i.e. a small number of games assume HDCP support (which they don't even seem to use) for some reason and can crash to desktop with no error if its lacking (might be a standard feature of the DRM they use or something).
