    Hey there, I would love to buy the Thinkpad W530 but I have one problem:

    Will the W530 run a 120Hz screen via Mini-Displayport? I know that mini-displayport SHOULD support it, but WILL it also work?

    Another question: Is there a way to connect 2 screens to the W530 ?

    I would love to use 1x 24" 120Hz screen + 1x 27" IPS Screen.

    Any experiences?

    Thanks

    I don't know anything about the Hz, but I believe I saw someone was running two WQXGA LCDs with dock that has two displayports.
