    Got a Legion Y530 laptop with 144Hz IPS panel. Hardware ID is LGD05CF and I can't find any info on it. Anyone can help?

    +1 on this. I would LOVE to upgrade my Y530 to the 144hz screen, as the 1080p IPS panel's response time is noticeably slower than my last laptop. Other than that, I am a huge fan of this laptop especially with the discount I got it for. But the screen just irks me. I just can't seem to find anything or anywhere to buy that panel.

    Looks like this is your panel:

    EDIT:
    Disregard above panel, that looks like its the 60Hz version from 2016.

    THE QUESTION IS:
    Are you simply receiving that same exact panel from 2016 but with faster microprocessors that permit it to reach 144Hz refresh rate reliably?

    ADDITIONALLY:
    How did you pull your submodel? From the PDF manual for your machine, physical panel inspection, or some hardware identification program running on your machine?

    Looks like your machine ships with the following panels:
