I want to connect this laptop to this TV.

1. Is it possible to connect this laptop to this TV?
2. What specific resolutions can I get the laptop to display on the TV?
3. Has anyone else connected their laptop to their HDTV for gaming? Give me your feedback about how it works...

Thank you!

You should have a VGA or DVI out on your laptop's video card that you can plug into the corresponding output on your TV (VGA, DVI, HDMI)

You should set your resolution to whatever the native resolution of your TV is.

I hook my regular PC up all the time...& your video card should be able to handle those resolutions with FSAA & AF no problem.
