Hi, I’m using an Acer Predator Helios 300 PH317-53-798L (2019 model, 17.3″ display) mainly for video editing with DaVinci Resolve and Adobe Premiere Pro. My built-in screen needs replacement, and my top priority is color accuracy, not gaming or high refresh rate.
Based on research and recommendations, I’m currently choosing between two 17.3″ FHD (1920×1080, eDP 30-pin) panels:
- LG LP173WF4-SPF1 – 60Hz, ~95–98% sRGB
- AUO B173HAN04.0 – 144Hz, ~93–95% sRGB
I’d appreciate help with the following:
- Are both of these panels compatible with the PH317-53-798L?
- Since I’m focused on color accuracy for editing, is the LG 60Hz panel the better choice, even if it means losing 144Hz?
- Will switching from 144Hz to 60Hz cause any issues or limitations on this model?
Any insights from those who’ve replaced the LCD on this model — especially for creative work — would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
