Rengsey R. H. Jr. Posted April 12, 2023 Posted April 12, 2023 I decided to order the new 18" QHD and install it on a GE76. Looks fabulous 👌.  1
1610ftw Posted April 13, 2023 Posted April 13, 2023 That is some crazy shit on a laptop that is only about 400mm wide 😄  Where did you get it, got a link? I have a bunch of older DTRs here that could easily fit the new panel as they are all at least 415mm wide but I am not sure if they will support QHD with a 240Hz refresh rate - that is a lot more bandwidth than even the old UHD 60hz panels.   Â

So I used the same video cable.  Link:  https://www.ebay.com/itm/304854303992?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=9GkOi_YNSES&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=Qnh9JmzTQ_K&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY  Its listed for $288 shipped, but make an offer for $250. I'm in US so it took a little bit over a week. Its a really beautiful screen. 1
1610ftw Posted April 13, 2023 Posted April 13, 2023 Thanks - I had seen that one but I noticed that many complained about bright corners with this screen in the Asus G18. Is that an issue with yours, too?

Is that an issue with yours, too? The reason for the bleeding is because asus lcd trim holds the screen on too tight. I noticed faint light bleed on mine , but not the same bleeding as the ones on the G18. 2
Rengsey R. H. Jr. Posted April 13, 2023 Author Posted April 13, 2023 @1610ftw, I am trying to see how I can house the lcd. I haven't had time yet.Â
Shark00n Posted April 13, 2023 Posted April 13, 2023 Best of luck.  Does it even roughly fit the top lid? 😅

Clamibot Posted May 6, 2023 Posted May 6, 2023 Is this panel a glossy panel? Looks like one from the images posted.  I ask because I absolutely love glossy screens.
