    Can anyone recommend a 1600x900 panel that would fit the m14x? I just ordered one through Newegg and that's the only thing I'd like to upgrade at some point, I just couldn't find anything in a quick google search. Thank you.

    Might want to get another M14x owner to use HWInfo to get the screen model number (Should be Samsung LTN-something)

    Most 14" 1600x900 screens have junk contrast ratios, and the one used in the M14x is an exception. Try to find the exact screen the M14x uses.

    Try talking to dell and see if they can ship one to you and or send a dell tech to install it, fee's might be high, but it seems like the safe route.
