    The folks over at ASRock RACK have created a graphics card that fits in an M.2 socket - it’s a lot smaller than an Nvidia RTX 3080 - but can it run games?
    Check out that ASRock Rack M2_VGA Module at lmg.gg/5wcQF

    This may actually have a good purpose. This can probably help with making a computer post when it doesn’t have an integrated GPU installed in the CPU. Most CPU’s without graphics need some sort of graphics driver for it to run, and this is no exception. This could help somebody with no GPU but intent to get one soon and when they upgrade, or get scammed on Ebay or something, they still have a graphics drivers unit in their PC.

Or, what about a case where the server was purchased second hand and can't be accessed without a video output because it has not been configured yet? While this would save an otherwise dead server in theory, I wonder if it would actually work for that case.

    When it mentions gaming systems they could mean things like arcade machines where the primary interface is physical lights and buttons rather than video-based, where this could then be used for management purposes or running reports.
    Another idea - adding a secondary display to an existing system for digital signage or advertising purposes, such as the screens you get on grocery store self checkouts

    Holy cow... Could retro gamers use this w/GPU passthrough and a more powerful card? Adding a real analog signal with a tiny little card instead of janky adapters is great!

    There's another, more "techie" use for this. Use Case: you need to run multiple VMs, with more than just 1 or 2 CPUs per VM, and you're dedicating GPUs to each VM, but you still need a local console to interact with the system to control and administer it.
    Higher core-count/performance CPUs don't always have integrated GPUs (or aren't always wired in the motherboard). Instead of taking up a full PCIe slot, that could be used for a full GPU for a VM, you can use this to serve as your local interface, leaving all other GPUs free to allocate/dedicate to VMs.
    The same use case would apply for mining/AI/high compute nodes also.

      Or simply for servers with CPUs not including an internal graphics adapter. You usually still need to access the console at least for initial setup so a cheap, efficient and small GPU like this is perfect. That chip is basically what you'd find built in on many modern servers anyways

      Yep, my thoughts as well, for VMWare or HyperV servers offloading the GPU grunt to something like a bunch of these.

      Run your HIVE/linux OS through one of those and allow ALL your mining GPUs to focus on mining ONLY. Mining rigs have the monitor off all the time anyways.
