replacing a 1920x1080 with 1366x768 lcd

mika2 · February 19

i have a acer a514-54g with a cracked screen that i want to replace.

but i want to save some money and buy a hd panel instead, since a full hd one cost twice the price.

will it work?

If your PC is Acer Aspire A514, then yes

eh , with laptops its no guarantee at all.

you know how many laptops ive seen that have literally the same make , model , and even build date that just flat out use different components? it's not like theres a law or something saying they have to use the same panel or it has to be a universal standard of some type.

that panel is going to come in the mail and have either just a totally different end on the cable or run at some sort of bizzare voltage that the previous panel didn't run at.

Absolutly this!!!!

There is no guarantee it will work as even just the controller on the motherboard could just say flat out no even if everything is the same.

Unless people have done this before there is no guarantee.

Also for op are you sure you wanna take such a drastic downgrade? Like 768p is kinda rough ngl.
