    How did you calibrate it? Did you use a Spyder thing?

    Nah I didn't have fancy stuff. I used someone's profile but it made everything very dark so I just went with calibrate display color that Win 7 had. Honestly it was just a bit over saturated and once I adjusted it, it was perfect.

    Ah nice. For the 120hz screen I just calibrate the gamma to 2.2, turn the contrast down, the brightness down slightly and up the vibrance. I also tweak the hue a bit. All done in the Nvidia Control Panel

    You ever find a source for the glossy LCD cover?

    I'd be interested in a spare to try to modify for a matte screen (cutting out the middle..lol). I hate glossy LCD's.

    I am really looking forward to the guide once you have time to post it. Thanks!

    Could you let us know what company your brother works for so we can order the AUO screen too?

    I can't wait for the guide

    why didnt you buy the: AUO159D (B173HW01 V5). I heard that some people get that one standard in their alienware m17xr3. The matte v4 isn't going to change anything because there is the E to E glass right?

    Hmm, never heard of Dell using that one for the R3 yet, link please?

    I went with the V4 cause it was convenient lol (in stock).
