Those videos were a bit cringey, but the display looks really good. Hoping for a good price too!
I don't understand why they advertise like that, I mean look at the view count, that's so low, and a video like that is expensive to produce...

That looks like a nice panel, and Ebay pricing isn't bad either. I'm struggling to find what panel type it is though - the spec page for the MSI laptops that use it just say "IPS-level", and Panelook doesn't list anything beyond a-Si LCD, which ... well, yeah. That's kind of a given, there aren't that many IGZO panels out there. Is it some type of PLS? AFFS? I hate it when OEMs don't list those types of specs. But nonetheless it looks like an excellent alternative for a fast portable monitor.I am currently building a n173hce-g33 17.3" pretty color accurate and very high brightness 144hz panel with a controller board I bought off ebay. I am designing a 3d printed case.
I'm excited for when it's easier to get those new 240hz panels like in the strix xg17. Also, the newer IPS 300hz panels from the lastest gaming laptops.That looks like a nice panel, and Ebay pricing isn't bad either.

... given that the XG17 itself is (at least somewhat) ridiculously expensive, that seems like a tall order. One can dream, though!I would love an XG17 style monitor that had the colour accuracy of an Eizo but wasn't ridiculously expensive.
I wouldn't say no to a 90% off deal on that one, that's for sure.Just noticed the ASUS PQ22UC is going for the low price of £2723.26 on Amazon UK. Black Friday miracle anyone?
The current RRP is £4299.00 ($5522.84)I wouldn't say no to a 90% off deal on that one, that's for sure.
I would expect the reason for there being no portable OLED monitors to be that there are (likely) no driver boards available for them, and given the low number of OLED panels out there making one would be rather expensive, especially since they likely couldn't simply copy an LCD design with slight modifications or even just a new firmware configuration like on LCD driver boards.What is most surprising is the Dell XPS 15 line has been offering a 15.6-inch OLED option since 2019. The portable monitor makers love to dip into the monitor stock that these laptop makers use. Yet we have yet to see any 15.6-inch portable monitor offerings even over a year later from any of them. I am guessing they won't be offering OLED options until next year at the earliest. Not a total deal breaker, though.I really love my Magedok 15.6 inch 4K monitor that I just got, which features a 500 nit brightness, 1400:1 contrast ratio, 100% Adobe RGB and a touchscreen. It was purchased specifically to go into a tabletop/bartop arcade cabinet and it is the bee's knees for playing games thanks to the touch capability and beautiful color reproduction.
For context the n173HCE-G33 panel I'm using in a diy probable monitor has some of the following specs (not as great as oled but good)
- Luminance: 300 cd/m²
- ContrastRatio: 1000:1
- Response Time: 5/4 (Tr/Td) ms
- Viewing Angle: 89/89/89/89
- Support Color: 262K , 100% sRGB
- Light Source: WLED , 15K Hours , With LED Driver
- Frame Rate: 144Hz
- Screen size: 17.3"

Dual full size hdmi and dual full size display port
It seems functioning and gsync has an option but I dont know how "compatible" it is.
It won't benearly as thin, since I'm 3d printing a case and it won't be metal.
it should be pretty good, but not as nice. That being said the controller cost me ~112 after shipping and tax and about the same for the panel. So <225 for the 2 main parts. Some screws and 3d printer filament will need to be added to total cost but for sub 250 you get a much better panel than the g-story 17.3" but it will be bulkier also.
I found this panel for 90$ and if you wan't a frame, there's a universal frame i found on many aliexpress kit (it's not pretty but it's strong)
I would love to get update from you and this DIY adventure, I think there's something to create from that
