A look at this link:<br>

does not show an S2600, but the 2600s shown there have "No integrated <br>
graphics."<br>

I could have whatever connections are supplied by the video card you choose.<br>
<br>
<br>
It looks like the B550 motherboard supports graphics, so there's <br>
probably an output or 2, but without CPU support they won't work.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I have a Ryzen 5 CPU that supports video, and a motherboard that also <br>
supports it with HDMI & DP outputs. No monitors plugged in (can't get <br>
it working with a discrete card - see next point).<br>
<br>
I've then installed a GPU (AMD) that has DP, HDMI, and DVI. I have <br>
monitors plugged into this.<br>
<br>
Then, there's yet another graphics card (nVidia) that supports DVI, and <br>
there's a monitor plugged in to that.<br>
<br>
<br>
So, any card you want should work (except something extreme like an <br>
nVidea 5090 that has insane power requirements).<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Hopefully this helps? Good luck!<br>
<br>
