im looking at a few laptops but find myself in a slight quandry

one has a 1920x1080 display, a gtx460m, 4gb ram and an i5 processor or I could pay 50 quid more for a gtx560m, 8gb ram and an i7 processor.

Sounds like a no brainer doesnt it, however, the slightly better one has a 1366x768 display opposed to the 1920x1080.

my question to you gents is, the difference in cost here is nominal but is it worth sacrificing gpu / cpu and saving 40 quid to get a better screen?

to have both these elements (i7 & 1920) presents me with a laptop that is more than I wish to pay.

cheers lads.

i7 + 560M
At that res you could play all the newest games at a much better frame rate than the 460M at 1080

aye mate ive just recently drawn this conclusion having done some research about whilst I had a lull at graft this afternoon.

now I need to gather the willpower and not think about stuff I need to do around the house and click buy haha!
 
ive found a system with a gtx460m for only 599 so im tempted to go with that as this machine is mostly just got diablo3, but its come at a time where my laptop is on its way out anyway ive changed umpteen parts on the old war horse

QUESTION

with a 1366x768 laptop, if I plug it into my 22" monitor can I run @ higher res if and when I fancy desktop style work / gaming?
