    I recently acquired a GS60 4K 2QE for a really good price. However the screen is not as bright as what I am used to and the yellows look a little funny sometimes. I have read the brightness of the 4K screen is a mere 250nits and that it is a Samsung PLS type IPS.

    I would like to know if I can swap the 4k panel for the MSI 3k panel. The 3k panel is much brighter and colors more pleasant being a igzo screen. this be possible? If so please advise where I can get a panel from? Thank you and cheers!

    EDIT: or where I can pick up the sharp 4k igzo panel? Any sellers I could purchase from and then send the 4k samung panel back to subsidize cost?
