ALP Monitor Replacement for LG - 32” 165Hz tutorial

Description

Installing a new 32" LG monitor in the ALP. The model I used is 32GP83B-B.AUS, but I hear that the Freesync and G-sync are pretty identical and should be the same for the tutorial.

I got tired of seeing people showing their new monitor, but no one showed how they did it. most said it was a simple drop in, but I didn't find that the case, and wanted to make sure that my monitor was secured. I have attached a pdf i created showing the steps I did to install a new monitor in the ALP. There is a little modding to be done, which made me nervous, but it was actually quite simple. I hope you find this useful and feel free to share it. If I missed anything, please feel free to comment and I will do my best to fill in anything missing. Enjoy.

Awesome. Thanks for this. I wondered how people really did it. I was wondering about outfitting my ALP with all new parts. Do you plan on keeping the ALP operating system in tact so you can still play it , or you replacing all of the parts for VPX and pinup.

 

I dislike the ALP menu system so much I have considered swapping everything out.

 

Please consider making notes on the backglass screen too.

 

If I end up working on it, I am sure I'd have extra questions.

 

Thanks!

Yeah, I have gone full pc now. I do have the plunger, and buttons from the alp still installed so I still have to use OTG mode to activate those, but I am looking into replacing those as well. Right now I have a 3 screen setup. I replaced the backbox with one from BuyStuffArcades.com. I also installed the solenoid from Cleveland Software, and have a bass shaker, etc from BuyStuffArcades.com. Im very happy with my setup, just need to get a new control panel for the buttons and plunger and Im done.

I have all the things you mentioned except a 4k monitor. I don’t play stock so don’t care about that. 
 

Worth it to go 4k?

Not for 32in. I would say get higher refresh rate. At 32in, you wont see much benefit to 4k, but you will at 165hz.
