    Hi all
    I know this has been posted alot already, but I've read through so many threads and other sources and am just at a dead end.
    I would like to upgrade the AUO FHD panel in my 17 R4. I understand that I will have to swap out the display cable as well.
    Can anybody PLEASE recommend a 17.3 UHD GLOSSY decent panel that would be compatible with the 17 R4?
    Thanks VERY MUCH in advance!!

    If you use HWINFO you can get the current model number and go from there on panelook.com for sizing / options.
