    Where can I buy one and what do i need to look for on the cable to make sure it is compatible? I have a 2018 Alienware 17 R5 and purchased an Alienware 17 QHD screen from ebay.

    Dell parts department unless you find someone selling one which isn’t all that likely.


    I assume you have the FHD currently
