is there a performance impact due to Display Link?
Hi,
I just ordered an HP Pavilion dv6t i7 laptop.
I haven't purchased a USB 3.0 dock yet as I am still researching the various brands/models.
My first question is this. Is there a performance or quality difference when the monitor is being driven by a USB 3.0 DisplayLink device as compared to a direct connection to the laptop's video/graphics subsystem?
Does this negate the features and performance benefits of the graphics card?
Doesn't DisplayLink render everything in software and wouldn't that degrade overall performance?
I really want to be able to treat the laptop as a virtual desktop, where I'll leave it closed with a connected external keyboard, mouse, and monitor when docked.
Just curious.
thanks,
Steve
