5950X without GPU as server?

So, this might be a stupid question to ask, but! Is it technically possible to run a server with a 5950X without any GPU?

Would there be any video output or would there be just strictly nothing?

I'm planning to build a new PC and use the old components as a home server for more background into the story.

 

Hope y'all are able to help me with this one!

Looking forward to any answer that could be helpful, thank you!

After it is setup, a headless server can be managed over the network via RDP for example, however you will need a display output for the initial build.
