Asus G73JH - Screen Replacement?

My G73 was overheating after about 10 minutes on a moderate-intensity game. So I decided to replace the thermal paste. It was still overheating, but I noticed that when I limited the FPS in games to 30, the temperature didn't go above 85 Celsius usually. Now my screen is just white from boot with a few lines. Nothing is visible, it's just white... I can still hook it up to an external monitor, so it's not the GPU that's fried right? I notice when I open applications, there's lines roughly where the application should be, so I'm thinking the screen needs to be replaced. I just want to make sure it's the screen and not something else. Also, can I get a better screen (I have a 1600x900 glossy screen, from best buy, could I get a 1920x1080 matte screen, or am I limited to what I already have)? I'll post some pics below, and thanks a bunch!

That's what I'm afraid of, if that's so. Can anyone confirm if the GPU is fried? Remember, when I plug it into a monitor, it works fine, which makes me believe it isn't the GPU. :confused:

it is man , first gpu death symptoms will be laptop screeen display messing out , later it develops due to heat and reaches its max point , THAT IS TOTAL BLANK .

Hmm, looks like I'm replacing the screen then. Do replacement screens usually come with a LDVS cable, or do I have to order that separately? I can't seem to find them.
