[QUOTE="Somersetscott, post: 111471, member: 10691"] Hi guys, I am no expert but I can share my own experiences - My current work set up: [ATTACH=CONFIG]26448._xfImport[/ATTACH] Dell Latitude E6420, Dell docking station and standard Dell screen. Works very well! large screen is exeptional. Laptop has let me down a few times - HDD problems twice in its frist year! One of my managers has Dell latitude M6600, dell docking station and an LG Flatron screen (not sure what size but large) - works well, he has no complaints. although I would have said my dell is more crisp. A fellow collegue has a Lenovo T430, Lenovo docking station and Lenovo standard screen (again large) - has regular trouble with resolutions, we are quite nomadic at times connecting to various outputs, different projectors and large tv screens the Lenovo seems to handle this poorly. And lastly (more relevant to the cheap side of the thread) I made a custom desktop for my mother to browse the web etc. We ended up with a large quite cheap LG Flatron (4 years ago now, Cheap from the local supermarket - Tesco) and its been one hell of a performer, I'd say on par with my current Dell. Mother has no complaints either as the resolution could be set to taste. As your computer is a 'gamers' laptop I should expect the graphics card has a high configurability and compatability with most screens. I do praise docking stations (need one specific to your model if you would like one) I like that the mouse dongle, power, monitor, keyboard etc can stay in one place and instantly active when the laptop is placed back onto it. Good luck! hope you find the right one for you first time! [/QUOTE]
