    The backlight of my Clevo M570RU is dead, i think it is better to buy a new lcd than try to replace the CCFL backlight, but what monitor to buy?

    I've seen some in ebay for like $70/80, most of them almost new, but there are different models, mine is LP171WU1 (TL) (A2), there is also A3, A4, A5, A7, etc, what is the best choice for this model?

    BTW, i did bought a new inverter, but didn't work.

    You should get one with the same resolution at least.. but i think this is a sign to replace the laptop =)

    Colors, Glossy/Matte, etc. In old threads, almost everybody says that (TL)(A2) was the best, i don't know if there are any new models and if quality of (TL)(A2) justifies the price.
