I just got a new laptop and I think it’s awesome for gaming despite some unusual specs for a gaming machine.
2k fps on excel 
I was initially going for a Legion but ended up with a refurbished Thinkpad. It packs 4080 tier graphics, handling most games smoothly.

What are the full system specs?

It’s equipped with an RTX 4000 Ada, i7-13850HX, 32GB DDR5, 2TB SSD, and a 16 inch 4k OLED display.
If the laptop cost under $500, consider getting a new one instead of replacing the screen. Alternatively, you could use it with a cheap external monitor.

I’m on a tight budget, so I’ll probably just go with whatever’s cheapest.

You should compare the price of a new laptop screen with that of a cheap PC screen and see which is more cost-effective.

Thanks! Do you think it’s something I could replace myself, or should I get a professional to do it?
@Jai
It depends on the laptop model. Some are easier to open and repair than others.

Check iFixit for a guide. They might have a step-by-step tutorial for your laptop model.
Nice wallpaper choice!

Hope you manage to fix it. If no solutions come up online, maybe take it to a service center.
@Harlem
Looks like it’s the LCD. I’m planning to buy a replacement and have my mom help me install it.

You took that so well. I would’ve been devastated! 
@Sloane
It happened a while ago, so I’ve had time to accept it. But yeah, it was a shock at first!
Always with the airport security, right?
You’ll need to replace the LCD, which might be pricey.
