N5110 possible to change to Hi Res LCD?

Hi Guyz, just bought N5110.this new laptop has worst lcd i have ever seen. colors doesnt look good at all. whole screen is cool blue hurts my eyes. i see lines in icons. feels like running old win 95 looking screen with 256 color.

Highest reso is 1366x768. anyways can I change lcd on this 5110 to hi res like 1400x900 or higher.

It has intel HD 3000. no video card.

I have vostro 1500 also and I have lcd with true life and maximum 1600 plus reso. very happy with it. colors are warm and do not hurt eyes.

Thanks

 

Your biggest hurdle will be finding a full 40 pin LVDS cable that is compatible with the motherboard.

Unfortunately 1440x900 and 1680x1050 are 16:10 and that aspect ratio for the most part is not found today. You could go 15.6" 1600x900 or 1920x1080.

 

Thanks for reply. Anyplace u suggest where I can buy screen n connector.

 

It's not possible to upgrade the LCD screen to anything higher than a 1366x768 resolution. The reason for this is that the motherboard's LCD output does not have all 40 pins of the LVDS connector. A 1366x768 resolution is not using pins #20 to #30; any higher resolution would use some or all of these pin range. Dell went on the cheap route making this computer; and made the motherboard and LCD connector without these connections.

I know it sucks; I bought an N5110 also and although the graphics card is more than capable of better resolutions, I'm stuck with a lousy 1366x768.

 

well I guess I am stuck with it. even I can get Hi res, I wish I could change color of it from cool blue to warm. I hate that cool blue color.

 

Sometimes dell makes different motherboards i.e one with a video card and one with just on board video. You could always try and see if they have another option for the laptop.

 

N5110 has a GT525M motherboard but still only has a 720p LCD with it, Inspirons haven't had a high resolution option from the factory since like 1525?

 

I'm sorry for bumping an old thread, I couldn't find any other discussions about this laptop.
I understand that you can't get a higher resolution screen, but what about a better quality one? The one I have has a really bad blue tint and the colours are way off. It is also a glossy screen.
I wonder whether it's possible to get a better matte TN panel, or even an IPS with the same resolution?
