    By monitor do you mean screen?

    Its only reviews are Amazon are 5 stars, so it seems fine, but I don't know much about this. You might want start a thread on the hardware forum.

    In my opinion yes I had the V5 in my old Asus G73 and it ripped my 170HM gloss screen to shreds blacks are black, whites are white the gamut is near perfect. I only didn't upgrade it as I use an external screen but you will struggle to find a better screen unless you pay out of the pocket for it.

    So if there aren't other tips, I think the decision to purchase this, make sure it's compatible?

    The Amazon reviews say it's plug and play, so it should work.
