    Hi all,

    I was thinking to purchase an ENVY 17, but after reading about all the overheating issues I settled for a dvt7-4190us. The main thing conserning me is the screen res - I want 1920x1080. do you think that it would be possible to install such matrix on this model if I buy it separetly?

    thanks :)

    I haven't heard of an aftermarket upgrade for the screen, not since the first gen of dv7's...I will look to see if I'm wrong.
