Does anyone have any experience in using a small (~10 inch) touch screen as a secondary monitor?

I currently have a dual monitor set up (27 and 24 inches) but I feel like thats too much screen real estate. Like, I literally cramp my neck when looking at the second monitor for long periods of time. The second monitor is only used for discord/youtube audio when I am playing games. Been thinking of getting a Raspberry pi display and using that as the secondary monitor.

Tons of good looking options on Aliexpress. Anyone tried something like that?

Maybe use a tablet to check discord? I think there is an app out there that makes your phone or tablet act as a second screen too. I'm sure I have tried it quite sometime back but I cannot remember its name exactly off the top of my head right now.

Dont have a tablet. Cant use my phone, too small and I need it for call/whatsapp etc.

Depending on what I get, a 7-10inch touch screen is pretty cheap on Aliexpress (~5k tops). I could subsidise most of that cost by selling my 24 inch monitor. It would also look better as a gaming set up and free up a lot of space on my desk.

I just dont know how usable it would be.
 
"No more upgrades" The biggest we tell ourselves. But let's see :D

WoW, I am loving the minimal yet functional setup you have there.
Also Can you show the a side shot of the cabinet? I cannot imagine how you kept your PSU in there!

PSU shroud is inbuilt. Fractal Design Meshify C is probably the best cabinet I have ever used. Its super easy to build in, excellent thermals (which you absolutely need in the Delhi heat. And it looks great too. The two nintendo toys are from a Happy meal they had a while ago.

This is quite clean for wires as well. Can you share a pick of wires routing?

Also how the hell are you playing Apex Legends? I was trying to play yesterday and got frustrated because of 150-160ms ping and hell unstable connection with the server. I even rage uninstalled the game

There isnt much routing. Since I am only dealing with Mic and Keyboard wires, I just push them through the monitor stand and zip tie them with the monitor wires. Putting the monitor back on the table means you dont see much of those wires.

As far as Apex is concerned, its a problem at their end but if you use Mobile data, it works fine.
