    Greetings all,

    Had a quick question while im still waiting for the M17X RGB screen.

    Is there any difference between gaming on a RGB screen at native resolution, and not on its native resolution?

    On my old Area 51 m15x when gaming at non native , it had a slight blur on the screen not as clear. (i hate that)

    Im just asking because im plannin on using this laptop quite some years, so evidently in some time i will have to lower the resolution to get better FPS... but my fear is that it will again become blurry....

    Thank you for your time,

    IMO any panel that is not utilized at the native resolution will not be as crisp/exact as if it was used at the native resolution.
