Yeah I can make my laptop into a pc. I can connect to my 27 inch monitor to make it a pc to put it at my grandma house. Usage is light at grandma house. YouTube and Netflix and editing school work. My main com go my new house.. maybe I buy gtx 1060 replace the old gtx 760 if needed but monitor is a higher priority.
I have 2 options if I don't buy a new cpu.
1. Buy any monitor and put it at my grandma house. My own Samsung 27 inch 1080p monitor also go new house.
2. buy a better monitor 31.5 inch 1080p to use at my new house. The only thing holding me back is that the monitor costs 600... expensive. so maybe I just get dell se2717h at 219. this option is the cheapest route. Wonder if it comes with hdmi cable
