    Is intel HD3000 enough for an external display w/ 1920x1080?

    That's good to know. So the discrete ones are mainly for gamers? I was a little concerned about playing HD movies with an integrated video card on a large monitor...

    Is intel HD3000 enough for an external display w/ 1920x1080?

    If I connect a Sandy bridge laptop with integrated HD3000 to an external 24'' lcd monitor with a resolution of 1920x1080, is it gonna work well? Should I go with a discrete video card? I use external monitor mainly for reading documents, programming, and video playback.

    Problem about Mandrake on HP DV1000 notebook

    I am using LILO. I have found the problem, it is the USB optical mouse. When I removed it, the test passed! But the booting stops at "Building Mozilla Registry", which I guess is not related to hardware. Right? Thanks!

    New Compaq V2000 and HP DV1000 series watch

    I read some reviews before I bought it but I did not read any info about noisy HD or fan. Then I guess there is sth wrong with the building quality recently as I am not the only guy who complains this problem in dv1000 forum.

    Please help a laptop virgin buy his new machine...

    If you care about weight, dv1000 is better than 9200, which is really heavy:) 9200 is for desktop replacement while dv1000 has more portability. Besides, dv1000 is much cheaper~~ According to your post, dv1000 is enough for your application. The main drawback of dv1000 is the Intel...

    Is it best time to buy HP's older Centrino notebook

    I found HP has lowered the price of dv1000 a little and you can add 2nd battery for free. Since HP's sonoma has not appeared, will HP give better offer on the notebook with 855 chips after the sonoma notebook's release? I mean, which of the 2 is more possible? 1. Give best offer...

    New Compaq V2000 and HP DV1000 series watch

    That is why I feel confused~~ They use PC2700 which runs at PC2100~~ Why not set the system bus to 333 rather than 266? The mainboard supports 333mhz~
  38. B

    New Compaq V2000 and HP DV1000 series watch

    Does that mean there will be independent graphic card or an upgrade to system bus of 333MHz? If so, I'd rather wait for such a new one:)
