Area-51m R2, LCD cable replacement

Question

So I have an Area-51m R2 360hz and put a screw through the side of the LCD cable and now it doesn't work. I can't seem to get one via Dell and can't find them in stock online. If I bought a 144Hz screen or a R2 screen with the cable and put that on my 360Hz screen, will I get the full refresh still?

Hi @MessyHarbor3 !

I hope I can help with this issue you're having today!

So the LCD cable for your display is the issue but the screen is still fine right?

You would need to contact Dell for a full screen replacement or just the cable as they don't individually sell the cable alone.

Also if you got a 144Hz screen it wouldn't be able to go up to the 360Hz you want.
