Anyone have pic of games running on a pc monitor with the avga 2 card. I might have to get one when the pci e  version is released. :)

I am confused...? ???
are you talking about a video card for arcade monitors and still using your PC monitor?

Why would you do it?
If you are still going with a PC monitor just buy a 21 inch monitor off eBay and use your PCs video card.

I have EBay bookmarked on 21inch monitors with in a 70 mile from my zip
I pick one up next week for $10.00 and about $20.00 in gas

need 1 more. Have 2 now
FYI: 21 inch PC monitor = 19 inch arcade monitor.  WISH I new this before I bought 3 -19" PC monitors :censored:

link to one I just won.

Scratch will not bother me. Going behind smoked glass. I have used scratched monitors before. Never see the scratch when game play is going.  Behind smoked glass I do not think anyone will ever know its scratched.

I already have a 19" pc monitor and the new arcade vga card can display arcade games native resolutions on a pc monitor through windows.

Still seems like an awfully expensive way to do something your computer will already do on a VGA monitor and standard video card.

That's not correct.  A standard video card does not support most video game resolutions without stretching (ie; not pixel for pixel).  The new AVG2 will allow you to, as I understand it, use the actual arcade resolutions on a standard PC monitor.  I believe it will be crisper than an arcade monitor so maybe not for the purist (read anally retentive).
