i don't think anybody who uses a laptop for fairly competitive gaming is using the lap top screen to do the gaming. That's why i have mine hooked up to ten eighty and a hundred, forty four hearts and twenty four inches. I actually used to play on a seventeen inch i laptop and use that screen. Seventeen inches a little bigger, but even seventeen feels so small when you have to set it back and have your keyboard and mouse in front of you. It's just, like, i think there's still benefits to having a dedicated set up to play games at if you're playing fairly competitively....
