Hey guys, so I've finally gotten my hands on a professional grade CRT, and want to get some of that beautiful GroovyMAME action going. The monitor is an Ikegami TM2017R, and I found a cheap a Radeon R9 350X to use for my GPU. One thing I'm concerned about is that my W10 PC already has a gtx 1060 6gb installed, and I'm hoping that I can keep it in there for more demanding games on my LCD monitor. Would I need a dual boot setup for this?
Other than that, I'm just trying to make sure that I'm ordering all the right hardware components to get this working as nicely as possible. This is what it should look like once everything gets here in the mail:
R9 350X > DVI-I to VGA adapter > VGA cable > Extron RGB 201rxi > 5BNC cable > Monitor
Any possible caveats to this setup that I should be thinking about? And are the cables linked below the correct BNC cables for going from the Extron to the monitor? I was watching a Youtube video of someone using a similar Extron and a BVM, and it looked like there was only a single sync cable coming out of the Extron / into the monitor instead of two like the cables below, but he said they were 5BNC cables so I'm a little confused about that.
