    Have been asked to recommend a laptop, guy want pretty high spec


    I've picked this one which has what he asked for - 16GB/512/15.6 HD/i7


    However I came across this document, that seems to say that it is limited to outputting to 1 screen if you don't have a docking station - am I right in that? He had been talking about connecting 2 monitors so this could be an issue.


    Appreciate any help with this



    Cheers

    has both a hdmi port and a usb c / displaypoprt so should be able to output from both of those?

    both these ports listed on this page in the specs section

    :confused::confused::confused:

    You're suggesting a 450 G6 but linking the manual for an 850 G5? Not pertinent at all.....


    The HD 620 supports three displays, nothing in the specs to suggest they've neutered that feature. Internal eDP, external over HDMI, external over DP(via USB C). Sorted.
