I have not tried it yet just found my cable today. But reading the soft15khz there was a few people who said the x1950 worked with the right drivers.

Please let me know if you can get the component out working with custom 15kHz progressive resolutions.  It would be nice to be able to recommend a card that can do that.

Well i ran into another problem. My pc i was going to use was a p4 3.2 and the x1950 which is a agp card. I was offered a free e7500 2.9 duo cpu/mobo/memory so i took it. The new mobo is pci e so my card wont work. And i prefer to use the e7500 so i can run hyperspin which i already have setup for my other cabinet and my media pc. So is there a preferred card to use or just get a rgb to component transcoder(if so what are also preferred)? 
rCadeGaming:
I don't know of a component-out card that's confirmed to work with low-res custom resolutions.  Supposedly they exist, but no one's been able to confirm with a model number.  So, I'd recommend the VGA to component transcoder route.

I've been using a GeForce 7300GS, which is great for Soft15kHz + Powerstrip.  With the new GroovyMAME with custom modelines coming out, I'll be switching to over to a Radeon using CRT Emudriver instead of Soft15kHz.  I picked up a Radeon HD4350 recently, but I need to try it out before recommending it.

If you do want to stick with Soft15kHz, I can sell you one or two like-new 7300GS's cheap.

What would some of the better VGA to component transcoder to buy? And how would you want for the 7300gs? I have an extra geforce 9800gt i could use but dont know if soft15hkz works with it yet. I am hoping to get my tv as close to a arcade monitor that i will no longer want to buy one.
