Oye folks,
As the title says, I want to use a working LM215WF1-TLA1 (21.5" FHD LCD Panel) from a broken LG TV to make a monitor for my PC.
I wish I could diagnose which of the boards went bad on the TV (PCB or Control), but I don't understand electrical engineering enough to try. I have seen a ton of the copy and paste "use an old laptop LCD to make a monitor". In that case it would seem I can get an adequate converter and control board from chine for like $33.
I have only seen one company that has a stand alone solution for PCB and Controller, but I cannot for the life of me find the website again. Are any of you aware of anywhere that has cheap OEM or 3rd party parts for this to work? Better yet is there anyone who has done anything like this before on there own?
In a perfect world I would be able to use a display port cable from my PC to the monitor, but since I am asking for the moon, I would also accept DVI or HDMI as the interface input. I plan to see if I can overclock the monitor to 75 HZ minimum, but if I could get 120hz I would go into business making gaming monitors lol.
Thanks in advance for any help you folks may provide.
