    I had a question regarding this laptop being able to support this monitor in the topic. I notice Sager laptops have a DVI connection but my question before thinking about purchasing one would be if it would support a monitor with 120hz. I don't want to waste my money getting one if it cant support the benQ XL2410T model or even the SamSung 2233RZ that I also have. Any input from anyone knowing first hand using a 120Hz monitor with this model or even above it would be helpful.



    Thanks in advance.

    Attached to a connector, it will be able to use the refresh rate of the attached monitor. The 560M can support 3D vision, so therefore it can support 120Hz.

    You mean as long as I have a DVI connection with the laptop right? I'm using DVI right now with my desktop using the DVI connection. I'm mainly looking to make sure 120hz works before thinking about getting a laptop. The 560M will be the videocard. Just confirming it will work with my benQ. 3D doesn't mean as much to me but 120hz is gravy.

    Well to get 3D performance the screen must run at 120Hz. So if the card supports 3D, it will support 120Hz refresh rate by default. Yes, you're right, if you use a DVI connection and/or an HDMI connection and the attached monitor/screen supports 120Hz, then just enjoy.
