  • I want to build my own arcade controls!
Well everyone, all the parts and wires and all sorts of things have shown up, im ready to do some wiring!

the question is, what do i cut? :O

Ive purchased a GBS-8100 to connect VGA to CRT, and that will be connected to a downscaler which converts hdmi to VGA....

the problem is, on my crt monitor setup, i dont know what wires need to be used for the converter!

Ive taken a few pictures and pointed to some wires, i was just wondering which wires are crucial?
if you could point out which wires i need to use id greatly appreciate it!

Let me elaborate a little more...judging by your monitor's snaps that's an A-1 from korea...there should be a sticker or something, but the instructions are here:

Basically it follows, from the left:Red,Green,Blue, Ground,H-Sync,V-Sync.
