Hi everyone! I've recently bought this office laptop Asus Vivobook 16 M1605YA-MB155WS.
I am a bit disappointed with the display quality as it has lower color accuracy (45% NTSC); it's making me a bit nauseous looking at it for prolonged periods of time.

I looked around for potential solutions and found that there is a chance for the possibility of upgrading my display to a more vibrant and color-accurate IPS panel. After a bit of research, I found my laptop's screen model:

Innolux N160JCE-ELL (Panelook)

and digging around Panelook website making sure I found a better display that's mostly compatible:

BOE NV160WUM-NH0 (Panelook)

Now the problem is I don't know if this new panel is 100% compatible with my laptop seeing as Innolux's has AMD FreeSync icon and the BOE does not. Does anyone have experience in this field? Are they compatible?
