    There is was an office in our tower that closed down and I got an 8570w for cheap. Only thing is the corners are all scratched up both on the bottom size base and the lcd lid and a dimple on the top. On my thinkpads I don't notice it much but it's so shiny on the elitebooks I see it all the time. They look like the same chasis and inner design can all the casing, palmrest touchpad etc be interchangeable?

    Thanks

    I highly doubt it will take a QHD screen, as it uses an LVDS connector and not the newer eDP connector. Best LCD is B156HW01 v.4 but it is almost impossible to get that exact version and it is very expensive as a result.
