I just gave up hope for purchasing a BenQ SW240 monitor because my Dell Laptop, which has only an HDMI port and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 960M graphics card are incompatible because the graphics card will not handle 10-bit color. My graphics card runs Photoshop on my laptop perfectly - no problems. I have a 1T SSD card and 16GB of RAM. Intel Core 7 processor. 1920 x 1080 laptop screen (non-touch). I really wanted to get the BenQ SW240, but everything I have found tells me it is not going to work. Some people have said it will be fine - it just won't display the color in 10-bit. Well, what about how it affects the overall performance of Photoshop itself? I need some clarity - not just about the screen resolution incompatibility, but how a 10-bit monitor attached to an HDMI port on a laptop with a GTX 960M graphics card is going to impact the operation of Photoshop itself. My guess is that it is a "no go." Your comments, please.
