URGENT vision pro svga/vga monitor displaying windows with .78mm dot pitch
(1/3) > >>
rlemmon:
 was going to order the vision pro 19" vga/svga monitor tomorrow (and exited as hell) and i was doing some last minute research.

I read on another sit that because of the .78mm dot pitch size windows is illegible. :angry: Anyone have any insight ?


I use my mame cab as my primary computer, if the dot pitch will be an issue I'm not getting it. :banghead: :banghead:

any help would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks guys

P.S. I originally posted this in the monitor forum, then it occurred to me that allot of us probably don't often view that forum.  Sorry for the double post but I really needed an answer ! Saint please dont send someone to my door to break my knees for double posting  :laugh2:

.78 WTF!!!! :scared That's a huge dot pitch!! are you sure that you didn't misread that and that it's not actually .28  I don't think there is an apeture grill sized at .78 on any VGA monitor.

BUT if it is then it's a piece of crap!

Yep I read it right here's a link to the spec page

I read that since its for arcade cabs the dot pitch is higher to create a more authentic arcade appearance.

Are you saying that with that high od a dot pitch winows would look horrible ?

Thanks fozzy

With that high a dot pitch, windows would be totally unreadable.

I don't know of any modern VGA Arcade monitors that are that bad... and I do use several multi res monitors in the Arcade. I strongly suspect that might be a Typo on the Happ site. You should contact them and check it out. It also claims to be VGA / SVGA  yet it only does 640 X 480 acording to the spec.... which wouldn't qualify it as SVGA.

I'd also be concerned by the Goldfish Bowl shaped tube.... Not great!

Well I called arcadeshop ( were i was going to order it) He said he thinks its a typo that it should be more like .28 

I was looking at similar monitor at betson and it also had a .78 dp

I thought they made there own monitors that they sell but it could be the happ one.

So mabey its not a typo. I guess I will have to call happ monday   :dizzy:
