I dropped my s7 a while ago and the back cracked however the front did not. On the front one of the corners in discoloured on the glass but not the lcd (the corner changed to a white kind of colour). 

 

I want to replace the glass but I'm not sure If I need to replace the glass and digitiser or just the glass. 

 

Anyone got any ideas?

if the screen is discolored you need to replace both. if the image hasn't changed at all then just the glass must be replaced. 

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.
