    Hi I asked this in some other threads with no reply, so I am starting its own thread. I am currently running a lvds m6800 with touch, and am looking to upgrade to an EDP motherboard. I have heard the display quality is slightly better than the LVDS version, and also I think that the EDP touch will allow pinch zoom functions better in Linux, as the data is sent through the EDP cable vs having an external touch innput cable.



    Now I use the touch screen a lot when I am teaching to move around doccuments and mindmaps and such.


    Personally I would love the what I imagine to be gourgeous 4k screen of the 7710.

    I hears a 7710 screen will fit into a m6800 last night from a person I met. Is that true?

    Are those screens much more beautiful than the m6800 touch?

    Are the m6800 touch edp vs lvds screeens noticeably different?

    So curious , thanks. Also I was told you could put the newer p4000 cards and into a m6800. is that really tru?

    Can't answer about the displays. However, I can mention that Pascal NVIDIA GPUs do not support LVDS. For there to be any hope of the P4000 working, you will have to switch to eDP. Even then, no one here has tried it yet, and GPU upgrades like this should always be treated as "maybe it will work" until we have a confirmed successful upgrade. Sometimes GPU upgrades that seem like they should work, in fact do not (Kepler cards on the M4600/M6600 for example).
