I'm looking to upgrade my laptop for work. I work in administration, and like to run 3 monitors with my laptop screen closed.
Currently I'm using my desktop computer (nearly 10 years old now) and it just isn't standing up to the demand of running multiple programs at once, plus Google Chrome, plus Outlook, plus Excel and my antivirus. It's completely understandable given the age of the computer.
I'd like to ditch my desktop computer and buy a better laptop than my current HP 15-da0356tx. Link for specs
In the past I have used a laptop with a docking station that supports two monitors and the use of the laptop screen. I know I'm being fussy but I really prefer just to use the 3 monitors I have on my desk and keep my laptop shut. My monitors are 24" and much easier to see than the laptop screen.
Could anyone make recommendations of a good quality laptop with numeric keypad, that is compatible with a docking station that is capable of supporting 3 displays? SSD is also a must. My budget is $1,000 up to $2,000 for the right setup but please feel free to let me know if my budget is way off, no hard feelings.
Use Edge instead of Chrome. It uses less resources.
