Upgrading laptop display to full HD. Possible or not?

March 12th, 2017, 4:16 pm

I have an ASUS ROG laptop with 15inch (1366x768 resolution). I'm planning to change my display because it has become a bit fucked up and showing weird colors as I showed in my last Q&As thread.

So my question is can I replace it with a full HD resolution display? Will it be causing me any trouble or will it really improve my gaming experience?

(PS. I know I can just buy an external monitor and place it but no I don't want to.)

My PC specs (My RAM is 16GB):

Your pc can handle a full HD screen but I'm not sure if you can find such a screen to fit your pc because your laptop is 15 inc and laptops who have full hd screen are about 17-17.3 inc or smth.

But Aleya are you sure that the problem you had on your Q&A was within the display? (LCD) or something related to the GPU?
No warranty on that shit?
Either way I doubt you will get any luck with an improvement of your current display. Laptops are extremely limited. I google'd a little bit and only a few models from Dell, Levono are capable of such complicated upgrade.

I dissembled my computer, cleaned the fan, reconnected the screen to the motherboard and it's still happening. I realized it happens most if I press on the screen with my fingers or when the computer becomes a bit too hot (while gaming etc...)

Please give model info on the back of the laptop so we google a little bit
If you apply pressure to the screen and the problem occurs that's normally the display.. but while gaming and it gets a little bit hot tends to be VGA.
Warranty gone?

Yes warranty gone. I'll post the model as soon as I'm home.


Edit: It's confirmed to be a display or display-connector issue. I tested my PC on a TV with HDMI and it worked fine on the TV screen while it did not on my PC's.
The model is ASUS ROG GL552.

Well, take it to a local computer store and let them check it, maybe it's just the connector.

Can you just play with TV plugged to your PC? Changing the screen or fixing it can get really expensive, especially if you take it to a local computer repair shop. Unless you can change the part yourself, that would mean you disassemble the whole thing, check all the wires with multimeter if they are damaged or not. If it is just wires or something similar that's broken they are super cheap to replace.
Also there are 4 different versions of ASUS ROG GL552 so would need exact serial number to check for parts. Also your screen should have its own serial number inside the front panel which would make everything 10 times easier.
