Title: monitor question
Post by: gman314 on December 24, 2012, 07:14:13 pm

I have been using a 15" (hp L1506) monitor for my bartop. I am thinking of upgrading to a 17" (or even a 19" if I can somehow fit it).  The board I am using is an Asus M2A-VM. 

I was wondering if there could potentially be any incompatibility issues if I decide to upgrade. I would assume that as long as the monitor uses VGA and supports 1024 x 768, that everything would be fine. Is this true? Should I expect to notice anything different when I am running mame or any other specific emulators? Does anyone have any recommendations for something say under $150? Thanks.

Recommendation is to get a used one. You shouldn't run into any issues.
