Like Kumabjorn mentioned, and desk7 pointed out in the past, you have a former device software based (with compatibility issues, performance compromise etc.) and a newer device which apparently is a real monitor.

Is not the Carta2 expected?
If it has a HDMI input, problem solved.
If it does not, it will at least have a better CPU.
Of which it is expected:
- that it has at least even a minimal GPU, which enables to compile GL in the system, without which modern remote desktop techniques (NX, TeamViewer) do not even start, and
- that it has a bit more power (performance, cores) than the current, and since screen mirroring (remote desktop: VNC) consumes more than the current CPU capacity (say, roughly double), the current processor is a bottleneck.
