cocktail table question
squirrellydw:
Hi, I am a Nobie.

No need for avga card or breakout cable with that monitor. It is vga (640x480) which any video card can output. Of course you would be limited to that mode. I used a similar monitor for my first cocktail and I liked it, however you won't be able to run games in their native resolution.
squirrellydw:
OK, any monitors you recommend in the price that will play classics's like Mrs pac man and donkey kong in there native resolution? Has to fit a cocktail table.
Thanks
whammoed:
A regular old cga monitor will actually be a lot cheaper:

paired with the avga it will run the classics in their native res.
you will need a breakout cable.

You would need the ArcadeVGA card and video amplifier from Ultimarc to make it work easily.
