Title: What kinda of monitor to get?
Post by: agent4877 on April 06, 2013, 08:47:23 am

Hi

I'm building my first MAME cabinet. I'm planning to put in an LCD (or LED) monitor (or TV) .. What are the type of things I need to look for when shopping for one? What specs?

Also, I plan on getting the 26" Bezel from happ (item#: 49-0123-00) simple because its the only widescreen one that I can find with outer diameter that I can cut to fit 25" x 25".  Anybody know where else I can find a widescreen bezel around that size?

The outer diameter isn't super important, as you can put a cardboard graphical bezel over the plastic bezel to cover any gaps at the edges.
