I'd love to have gone that route, but was looking for a quick solution which ended up being the Nvidia GT 710
Would be nice, but the motherboard (GA-X99-UD4) is a desktop board with no serial out.
I was very close to doing this as I could repurpose it for video transcoding but ended up going with the Nvidia GT 710.
I thought about that, as I have a few spare USB->DVI and USB->VGA adapters but I don't think they are usable during the BIOS post.
While a great idea, and I would love to do so. This is a desktop motherboard in a server chassis, with no serial/usb output. It is a Gigabyte GA-X99-UD4. I ended up picking up a Nvidia GT 710.
You hit the nail on the head for me. I'm not a fan of Google, but for the cost spread across a few people, it's actually not a bad price. Knowing the creators I watch actually helps justify
Not yet, the new card should arrive tonight. It's actually a SC847BE2C supermicro chassis but it's getting close to being ready for a new motherboard/cpu/ram
