Who knows Modern Monitors
« on: February 28, 2002, 10:22:02 am »
Hey,
 I'm currently using s-video t.v., but I'm thinking about adding a monitor instead.  Can anyone tell me if the newer monitors like the Wells Gardner will hook up directly to my videocard.  This is a cut and paste from Happs, under their Wells Gardner U3000: "Input Connector: 15 pin D-Sub male; VGA compatible". Isn't that what computer monitors use?   Thanks.

Yep, this monitor will work with a standard PC VGA output.

I have an EYGO monitor (27" 640x480max 60hz).  It's great for somethings (windows games) but if you've ever seen the pictures of spyhunter on a svidio card and a SVGA monitor?  If so, mine looks the the SVGA monitor in color depth.  I have very square looking pixels with scanlines added.

I like it, but I think the output would have been better if I went svideo to start off with.

btw, I've heard good things about Wells Gardner's, anyone with both a WG and a svid tv out there?  could you take a look to see what one looks better in spy hunter (the bushes on the side was where it was obvious in my mind)
