    Hi guys

    My cat just jumped over my monitor, it fell on a mouse and cracked :(
    Any ideas where to get a replacement screen? Google has nothing on this and I don't feel like it's fair to scrap the monitor just for a screen damage which should be cheap(er) to fix than replace it alltogether.

    Monitor: QNIX QX2710 LED Evolution II Multi TRUE10 SE 27" 2560x1440 Monitor Overclockable

    Thanks

    It's an AUO panel but I don't see any replacements listed. The panel is 90%+ of the cost so its likely a case for a new one.

    A monitor arm, either clamped or wall, is a very catproof solution for €20.

    Yep, the Panel is the majority of the cost. Its only viable for repair on laptops as they involve other components.

    Have a Qnix myself,everything but the panel is super cheap and plasticy. Especially the stand. So yeah id agree best option would be just to replace it.

    Im not bashing the monitor,it has its faults but i love mine. Been ticking away a 100Hz and ive had it a few years now. Turned out to be a great buy for me build quality aside.

    Ehh it was worth a try. Thanks guys, that makes sense, hopefully I'll spot one being sold with a dead psu or logic board, wishful thinking probably.
