I've decided to embark on a journey to build a portable workstation/gaming rig with everything built in, and I need to find the absolute lightest components available. I just started searching tonight and I started with the display because I think the display may be one of, if not the most difficult parts to actually find.
Any and every option to obtain the lightest monitor possible is on the table (including custom building, soldering, designing PCB, etc etc). An idea that just popped into my head; using the computer's PSU instead of the display's own to save weight (if possible). I'm running options around in my head but no matter how I implement it, I still need to start with a very lightweight display!
Specs should be 4k (3840 x 2160) at 60 Hz (or higher). And it should probably be at least 20" so that eyes won't have to strain too terribly hard.
Money is potentially no object (it is, but I still want to leave my options open) and the brand matters not. IPS is preferred, but I think OLED displays might be a lot lighter (plus that beautiful perfect contrast ratio), so that's something I would definitely consider, although the options are probably very limited. If anyone has any ideas where I could start my search, or any suggestions at all, please let me know! Thank you very much! 😀
