Hi guys,
I know that the answer's in here somewhere and I probably even know it myself, but I just wanted to make sure - does screen size affect performance? For example, if I connect my 15.6inch laptop to a 40inch TV, but keep the same resolution, will playing games eat more resources than playing them on the laptop? I know the view might be awful and etc. but I just wanted to make sure that the performance is not affected.

Thank you for you time :)

Hi,

the size of the pixels doens't matter, the amount does. So when you're playing on a 80" FHD screen or a smartphone FHD screen (if it was possible of course :p) you will see the exact same performance.

So no, it does not affect performance.
