Dudes,

I was installing my new motherboard with my case on the desk, went to turn the case vertical and accidentally scratched a nasty diagonal line right through the center of the monitor.

It's a fancy acer Predator XB27HK 4K affair so i'm upset.

I looked for replacement panels but in the EU they are 800 notes and more expensive than the monitor. I did find the exact AU optronics panel in China for circa 200 notes but no idea if it will actually be fitable. Anyone got experience of that?

Anyone had a similar issue and know where new panels can be got from?

Going to phone Acer and Insurance people tomorrow to see what options are available there.

cheers in advance
 
a touch of carefully applied vaseline has almost completely hidden it. I'm absolutely amazed it's worked so well. Will tide me over until i figure out what to do next.
