    Resolution upgrade or downgrade - possible but not recommended.
    We do not recommend upgrading or downgrading your screen resolution due to a number of cases when customers had their video cards fried. A video card works just like a CPU, only for image processing. You can overload it while connecting to a different screen, and it may require more processing power. And yes, there are lucky users who have successfully changed their laptop's resolution while upgrading their screens. It all depends on your video card. Manufacturers will sometimes install screens with the same video card, although, we would strongly recommend against trying this type of an upgrade, as there is always a chance of damaging your video card and the cost of repairs can be as high as replacing a motherboard.
