More monitors = worse performance?
I am using a Targus DVI & HDMI dock, with my Dell Ultrabook 13. I use two Dell displays connected to the DisplayLink dock.
I am just curious if using more monitors will hurt my performance. Specifically, if I should keep the laptop's monitor enabled or disable it. I don't really need it, so if it will improve performance I'd just prefer to turn it off. |

Turning off the laptop screen will make little difference to the performance, as that's directly hardware accelerated from the GPU.
