    Laptop Core speed drop when on charge

    Gaming Laptop under performing

    Can i connect my Xboc One with just my laptop (windows 10) and the HDMI cable?

    You can log into your router and see what ip addresses it has given out and test each one to see if it is your xbox. As for your original question, your laptops hdmi port it output only, there is no way to make it work the other way round

I know the 2015 is last years, but imho, a core i7 cpu and gtx970 gpu is miles ahead...
