my gl553vd's warranty is coming to an end soon, so i'm looking to upgrade it's monitor

the current monitor is NT156FHM-N41, which is only 60hz

if i replace with B156HTN05.1 will it work? do i need to flash firmware or something?

I asked same question couple months ago inspired by LTT, but I guess nobody tried this yet.

Good chances that It will work, but you will lose its Gsync capabilities. That's what happened with the GL502's, at least.

It does not have g-sync anyway.
