    I have searched the net and didn't find the answer I wished for so I will ask here.

    I am planning to hook up my laptop to an monitor and use it as my primary monitor, so i will have the laptop lid closed and the lcd on the laptop shut off. So my question is that will I damage my lcd? Yes I am planning using intense programs such as games and video editing.

    Also I have a Dell XPS 1530, so that shows how hot the laptop can get.

    Thank you.
