    I don't know if this is possible on a laptop with no HDMI in, but is there anyway to test the screen before populating a barebone system? My last one had some stuck pixels, and I didn't know it until after I spend a few hours putting everything together etc.

    Not that I know of, unless you can find a way to get power to the display.
