M4980 Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I have had a 1440p LG LP156QHG panel from the Alienware X15 R1/R2 laying around for a while and decided I would like to install it into my Precision 7520. I currently have the FHD model so I'm going to need a 40-pin eDP cable, the display doesn't have mounting tabs so i will need to install it using another method edit: got some 1mm double sided foam mounting tape, will post results Inside of the top case for reference: Dell Precision 7520: Intel Core i7-7920HQ, 32GB RAM, NVIDIA Quadro T1000 4GB, LG LP156QHG (240Hz QHD, 100% sRGB & P3, 450 nits), Intel AX210 WiFi 6E Dell Precision M4800: Intel Core i7-4810MQ, 32GB RAM, NVIDIA Quadro M1200 4GB, Intel AX200 WiFi 6 ThinkPad T440p: Intel Core i7-4980HQ i5-4300M, 16GB RAM, Intel Iris Pro 5200 HD 4600, N140HCE-EN1 Rev.c2 (1080p) ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 2: Intel Core i5-4300U, 8GB RAM, Intel HD 4400, QHD ThinkPad X230: Intel Core i5-3320M, 16GB RAM, Intel HD 4000, 16:10 2K display ASRock X570M Pro4: Ryzen 9 3900X, 32GB DDR4 3200MHz, NVIDIA GTX 1070 8GB, Corsair Crystal 280X, Xiaomi Mi Curved 34 + Acer Predator Z35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4980 Posted January 5 Author Share Posted January 5 Managed to get the display tested and installed Works fine in the 7520 with brightness control too I haven't tested above 144Hz, I don't think the HD 630 optimus supports it at this resolution I used two layers of this foam tape: PE Foam Double-Sided Adhesive Tape -Outdoor and Indoor Super Strong Foam Seal Strip for Automotive Mounting,Weatherproof Tape for Car,LED Light Strip, Office and Home Decoration, Photo Fram(0.47”X33FT : Amazon.co.uk: DIY & Tools It's 12mm so 24mm total, but I should have used another layer as the display edges aren't making contact with the bezel as they should Be aware that this tape is an absolute nightmare to remove if you make a mistake, not even sure if I'll be able to lift the display out to fix this 3 Dell Precision 7520: Intel Core i7-7920HQ, 32GB RAM, NVIDIA Quadro T1000 4GB, LG LP156QHG (240Hz QHD, 100% sRGB & P3, 450 nits), Intel AX210 WiFi 6E Dell Precision M4800: Intel Core i7-4810MQ, 32GB RAM, NVIDIA Quadro M1200 4GB, Intel AX200 WiFi 6 ThinkPad T440p: Intel Core i7-4980HQ i5-4300M, 16GB RAM, Intel Iris Pro 5200 HD 4600, N140HCE-EN1 Rev.c2 (1080p) ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 2: Intel Core i5-4300U, 8GB RAM, Intel HD 4400, QHD ThinkPad X230: Intel Core i5-3320M, 16GB RAM, Intel HD 4000, 16:10 2K display ASRock X570M Pro4: Ryzen 9 3900X, 32GB DDR4 3200MHz, NVIDIA GTX 1070 8GB, Corsair Crystal 280X, Xiaomi Mi Curved 34 + Acer Predator Z35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
