guys i'm facing a dilemma of whether to buy
1) laptop with 17inch screen or more
OR
2) 11 - 13 inch laptop with external monitor
i use my laptop mainly just to watch videos. but i do play games like dota, those low demanding games.
do u guys know any laptop with large screen but low spec? i checked out dell vostro 3750 but the resolution is only 1600 x 900. i'm looking for full HD. i'm worried that dell vostro can't play 1080p video.
whether or not a computer can play 1080p video is depend on the graphic card or the monitor resolution? can clarify for me? sorry i'm really a newbie at this.
the 17 inch alienware laptop cost a lot.
i dunno anyone who travel around with large external monitor. is it a dumb idea to do so? i mean can external monitor be carried around in a laptop bag?
dun flame me pls

The Vostro is no weakling, its capable of doing all the things you said, with no sweat at all If you're going for a 17" laptop, the Vostro is the cheapest around already  but the vostro can't play full HD video am i right??? and whether or not can play a full HD video is solely depend on the monitor and not the laptop??? |

QUOTE(fJok3R @ Jun 2 2011, 09:00 AM) +1, i don't think it is practical to carry around an external monitor around and yes, vostro 3750 can play 1080p video.and for the resolution, i think assuming the 1080p video is in 1920x1080, it will be fit into your screen reso 1600x900. correct me if i'm wrong. pardon me but are u sure about this? about 2 years ago i downloaded a 720p video and i tried to play on my old computer + monitor and all i get is lagging video. |
