Sorry, I'm not very used with server stuff, if I buy an Intel CPU without an integrated GPU like most Xeon, then I wouldn't have enough pcie lanes for a GPU because all is taken for nvme drives

Specifically, the motherboard ipmi is powered by aspeed ast2500

If I understood right, that chip will act as a 2d basic graphics card that's enough to see what happens that day the server is unresponsive

I don't plan to connect a monitor, it's just that I'm scared if I break truenas and I can't connect via ssh, then I could still see the local screen from the management Page on the browser
