Question Question on laptop & desktop screens regarding calibration and color accuracy

[sirhawkeye]

Need to verify something: When it comes to color accuracy for laptops, the accuracy that is stated (like x% of SRGB) is only for the built-in LCD display correct?

I have a laptop I'm looking at and will be pairing it with my external display (which does support 100% sRGB, and will be calibrated using the X-rite system. Just wanted to make sure that while using the external display, the accuracy is correct but wanted to make sure that the video card didn't some how impose any limitation on color accuracy either.). I don't mind so much about the laptop's screen accuracy as it will mostly be used like a desktop with the external display I mentioned).

If there's any color accuracy rating, then yes, it only applies to the build-in monitor. In general, color accuracy depends only on the monitor now. Everything is sent via digital data streams with direct color values.
