    Hey there!

    Recently I cracked the screen my MSI gs70 and I need to replace it. I looked up a replacement screen and I was able to find one here: Screen for MSI GS70 2OD-012AU. Replacement Laptop LCD Screens. The stock screen seems to be a B173HW01 V.7 according to this website. I noticed there are B173HW01 V.3, B173HW01 V.4, B173HW01 V.5, etc. and I was wondering if these are all interchangeable as long as it has the B173HW01 V.x part number.

    If you replaced your MSI GS70 screen with a totally different screen let me know.
