  • A few days back my laptop upgraded to 360° rotating display so I just removed the display part completely and now I am using it as a PC.
    So if you have an old laptop, don't throw it away.

  • @josueel-azeem548
    @josueel-azeem548 6 месяцев назад

    For some laptops, if you detach the laptop screen and plug in an external monitor, the laptop will still try and load on your default disply and will therefore show nothing on your external monitor. If this happens, you'll need to reattach your laptop screen, go into the settings and configure it to use the external monitor. If your laptop screen is broken, just plug in your external monitor. Your laptop in this case will show display on both screens. Now you can configure the laptop to only use the external monitor. This can be done via the BIOS or your Windows settings (again depending on the laptop).

  • @nickinthelead7904
    @nickinthelead7904 Год назад

    Some gaming laptops are actually better if you use an external screen. There's a thing called optimus that lowers the perfomance by using the iGPU to transfer data from the discrete gpu to the processor and you can't disable it unless you have a mux switch (not all laptops have) so connecting you laptop to an external screen actually bypasses this and gives a decent fps boost.
