    Does anyone know the best internal panel for these laptops? I know that they can take a 1080P 120HZ panel (as offered from the factory), but has anyone had any luck going to 1440P+?

    This was the first question asked, and it was answered.

    As for the next, no, the 1440p panel has yet to be confirmed working. Only seen one person try and it didnt work out, cant say if it was just the panel or the system that was rejecting it.

    Was asking for the best specs of the panel, not the actual panel itself. Regardless, guess I'll have to be trying it out myself, hoping to put a 4K DC display in them, 1080P at 17 is a bit too low for me now a days.
