I currently have a MSI GT73 gaming laptop and am thinking about upgrading to a newer gaming laptop (for a faster CPU, better graphics card etc). My current laptop has a 17" 1080p screen - I don't use external monitors.
Some of the newer 17" laptops I've seen have 4K displays - my eyesight isn't what it used to be - I'm worried that 4K on a 17" is just too small - am I ok to run the 4K at 1080p (in full screen mode) - does running the 4K screen at 1080p cause any problems/issues (performance/screen clarity/refresh etc)?
