x16 R2, change to 240 Hz WQHD

Hi everyone,

I have an Alienware X16 R2 with the FHD 380 Hz display. I’m planning to order an original Dell display (including cover and cable) in WQHD at 240 Hz. Is it possible to swap the displays?

Thanks for your help!

Make sure you get the entire assembly, but it should be possible.

The Dell part number is 7MG4P.  Here's one listing:

I have a donor laptop from which I would remove this component. That should work, right? Also, thank you very much for your response.

Remove the assembly, not just the display panel - but you should be able to swap it, yes.

That’s how I’m going to do it.

Do I need to pay attention to something or even change something in the BIOS, or is it plug and play?
