I am new to this forum and i am planning on converting a golden tee cabinet i recently purchased and fixed to MAME. This is my first cabinet and i plan on re making the control panel with joysticks and buttons and using an iPac2 to connect it to a computer.
I also plan on making a simple vga to rgb wire harness and using soft 15k to lock my computer into 25khz (golden tee has a med resolution monitor inside)
Does this sound like a solid plan that would work, or should i look at other options. I really want to use a crt instead of an lcd screen and i dont have the money to go out and purchase a new 15khz monitor.
I have no experience with MAME or Hyperspin yet and I haven’t purchased a computer but plan on playing the classic arcade games and consoles and some fighting games as well. What minimum specs should i be looking for to emulate these types of games smoothly?
Thank you guys for your help!
