HELP with XMG P724 (clevo P370SM-A) screen upgrade to 120hz panel

Hi everyone, Ive just purchased the above laptop, XMG P724 (clevo P370SM-A) as you know it comes with a 60hz panel as stock. i would like to upgrade the panel to the LG LP173WF2-TPB1 120 hz Matte screen, the big problem i am having is not sourcing the screen, but sourcing the 50 pin Edp connector ribbon. I have pretty much tried all the clevo retailers in Europe but to no avail. Are there any knowledgeable clevo users here that know where i might find one. I cant bare the thought of running dual 980m's on a 60hz panel. Please if anyone can point me in the right direction i would appreciate it. FYI i haven't purchased the screen yet, so im happy to buy both items from any recommended retailers or parts suppliers together with the cable. Thanks in advance.

I struggled with the same problem but then decided to cough up a little extra and order the notebook from xnotebooks.com to get the 120hz screen. Btw have you tried them? I think they are the only ones offering a 120hz option. Or mail to rjtech?

If you have you could try overseas eg. xoticpc.

do you have 980m sli already installed on your machine? i might find you that 50pin connector, give me a few days!

so i got the 3d cable, and i got the 120hz panel, now my only issue is removing the top cover to the laptop. I cant see how its removed in the service manual.Any ideas?
