    Hi
    I'm looking to get an SZ680 for my wife....I'm a little underwhelmed by the screen resolution....My wife would like to use the docking station with an external monitor (via dvi)....What's the max supported resolution that the Nvidia Geoforce 8400M GS can handle.
    Thanks for any info

    The max resolution is not controlled by the graphics card, it is a properly of the type of connection you use.

    VGA can handle up to 2048x1536 and DVI up to 1920x1200.
