Lamptron Launches HM070 Flip LCD PC Hardware Monitor

Lamptron have recently launched the HM070 Flip display for PC hardware monitoring, designed to be installed within a PC case the unit can automatically flip the screen open when powered on. We have previously reviewed the Lamptron HM070 Lift which features the same 7" 1024x600 LCD display in a lifting configuration. The HM070 Flip includes integration with AIDA64 software to display hardware information with various provided templates designed specifically for the display. The unit can be installed in the top or bottom of certain cases with dimensions of 182.5 mm x 130 mm x 30 mm (125 mm when screen unfolded). The device also includes a remote control for manual operation and is powered via a 5 V Micro USB connector with HDMI used for the display.

I can imagine this would be a consideration for a lower end GPU with two/three ports only. But I guess if you own GTX1650 you won't be splashing on a monitoring screen.

The Chinesium thing from Amazon is 3.5", HM070 is 7". Anyway, you can get any of the cheap LCDs for the Raspberry Pi, the Lamptron is just a basic HDMI 1024x768 display in a fancy case, but you at least get an AIDA64 license with it - I assume, you get one with the "Lift" version of this display, there is no mention of it here. Or you can get an old smartphone and use it with Odospace Remote Panel application through a Wifi connection, saving some money - you can often get an old smartphone for free - and avoid annoyances with Windows or other software trying to use it as a main monitor. It's not a bad solution and one I use daily but only supports Windows so is of limited usability.

It's just a fancy HDMI screen. You can just slap lm_sensora and htop on it. Aida64 developer doesn't seem to be in a hurry with a Linux version and here lies the problem.

It's not that simple. Building a DIY version of this is very involved and not everyone has the skills or time. The above is a seemingly excellent product for those who want the functionality.
