    ok.. i got my m17x r3 pretty cheap from ebay/new as no one went bid on it and it was listed for 2 days only.. XD

    anyways, i'm currently considering swapping out its original non-3d 1080p screen to a better one...

    would u guys recommend:
    1. AUO B173HW01 v4 (is this rgbled???)
    2. the 3d screen (pls kindly tell me the model name)
    3. something else

    what are my expectations and needs:
    1. i'm using it for 3d-work/photo manipulation + slight gaming
    2. the wider the color gamut, the better
