My current Core 2 Duo PC will need replacing soon, as will my Laptop.
So I was wondering, instead of getting two separate systems again, why not get one for both? The Deskop I used mostly for gaming and web-surfing while the Laptop was used for working and traveling as well as watching movies. Now I don't see myself traveling quite as much as I used to in the future so I wouldn't mind a slightly heavier laptop suitable for gaming.
I already have a dedicated 24" 1080p monitor that I would like to use on my desktop as well as a "proper" keyboard and mouse for gaming purposes.
Now I was wondering, aside from the actual Laptop, what other components to I need in order to replace a Desktop PC with a Laptop. Obviously the Lappy needs decent hardware and power to manage 1080p at a decent FPS, but other than that, what should I look for?
Do I need adapters to add more USB connections? Do I need an HDMI output or will a DVI-D suffice? Anything else I should look out for?
