FormulaMod 8.8 Inch CPU Hardware Temperature Monitor External Expansion Display HD High Resolution LCD Screen LCD Screen for PC Case for PC ARGB Computer case Secondary Screen

I have been using this display in a variety of conditions over the past 2 months - it has performed quite well, even holding up to quite a bit of on & off road use while mounted in a vehicle for a number of mobile computing purposes. So far, in my opinion it has provided excellent value - a big step up from open frame / kit displays of this size & cut/bar aspect ratio, but without hitting a premium price point.Initially, the display's brightness was simply too much to preserve any night vision whatsoever when the display was being used in a dark room (or on a dark road - one of the review photos shows it in use mapping ADS-B flight telemetry data while mounted on a vehicle dashboard in the dark)After an inquiry about this, FormulaMod was quick to instruct me on how to remove the rear plate - there is a white button which will cycle through multiple brightness levels hidden under there! This button is not mentioned elsewhere in any of the other provided documentation at the time of writing, and the unit ships at maximum brightness. The last used brightness setting is preserved even when power is completely removed, which made this undocumented functionality even more useful for my purposes.There is no OSD functionality that I am aware of, and aside from the RGB enclosure lighting it's not exactly a feature-rich multimedia powerhouse or anything - it doesn't purport to be, and for my applications the lack of such typical useless "feature creep" leads to an overall simplicity which has been another unexpected benefit.There are cable routing channels cut out on the rear of the housing to allow for a side-exit installation. If you want your cables to come straight out the back, note that both the mini HDMI and micro USB connectors have the angled shorter side towards the inside; if you are looking for 90º adapters for either of these connectors, they should curve "up" away from that edge.In reading other threads, comments & reviews, it sounds like this is likely a clone of another very similar display. I *don't* have personal experience with "the original," but FormulaMod support really went above & beyond to stand behind this product, which is more than enough for me.First, this was by making sure I was describing the LCD backlight vs. the RGB enclosure lighting - then, once they fully understood my concerns about the brightness, quickly getting back to me & providing detailed instructions with photos to ensure that I understood how to confidently make the most of my purchase.I buy a lot of good stuff on Amazon, but don't write a ton of reviews... Rarely do I have an opportunity for such a great interaction with a vendor on Amazon with a product that meets my needs so well, though... This felt so exceptional that I was inspired to share my own experience regarding both the manufacturer/vendor FormulaMod & their 8.8" LCD itself.

I got this for a sensor panel for my computer. works perfectly but with a few flaws. power cable is to outer case usb so when I turn off, turn on sleep, shut off power is still going to the screen. I know this because there is a visible blue back light. I'm now looking for a mico usb to usb header to fix this problem. The other problem I have is that the led cable is to short as my desk cant fit the computer on it I have it under the desk and I have to put the screen on top of the desk to make use of the sensor panel. I've tested the leds on it and they're working and bright it would be nice to use them.

It’s cool, really only designed for horizontal mounting. Hard to find vertical Aida 64 templates for free. Otherwise it’s simply another little monitor that’s good for utilities and aesthetics. A manual would’ve been nice though!

Easy to install and it does its job.At first, I had no picture even if the display was recognized by Windows. After some inspection, I figured that the USB cable wasn't fully connected.As for the brightness, someone here mentioned about a secret menu, but you can simply go on Nvidia Control Panel settings (from the Desktop), go to Adjust Desktop Color Settings, select this monitor, and lowered the Brightness and Gamma from there. Done! No need to uninstall the whole monitor.

Im a big fan of this screen with just a couple of downsides. First of all this is a great little add in screen to your PC to pair with Aida64. There a couple of templates to choose from the folder they provide but you can find more on the Aida64 forums. One of the caveats ive found is my screen came scratched as hell and while you cant really see it when its on its very noticeable when its off. Another downside i would say is the hardware that comes with it arent really that great and easily strip. Even with some of the downsides i would still recommend this screen
