If you physically can't watch 1080p on your laptop, it's because it has shit hardware.

The monitor will work, but you still won't be able to play 720p video on it.

>>137534
To be unable to play 720p, it would have to either be a Netbook, a Pentium 4, Pentium M, or massively-misconfigured. No even vaguely-modern computer can't do this.

Oops, I meant I CAN watch 720p

>>137544
You are making no sense

>>137544
?

So you mean you want to get a monitor to watch animu in a bigger screen?

Yeah, it will work, as long as both your monitor and your laptop have the same port.

You should be able to just set the resolution of the secondary monitor to 1080p, I don't see why this wouldn't work unless your hardware is too weak to support both a 720p and a 1080p monitor.
