Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 2020U

[h4ck7]

Hi everybody,

I'm looking for a crt for jamma and can't decide for a crt tv like sony trinitron or a crt pc monitor. I'm looking for something smaller than 25" and bigger then 19", because I don't have a lot of space.

I have found this for sale in my town, a Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 2020U for 40€. Is a 22" crt pc monitor with RGB connectors:





And this are the specs:

JAMMA?  No.  This is a 31KHz monitor, which means your standard resolutoin JAMMA stuff at 15KHz won't work with it.

However, it does advertise 120Hz refresh, so using something like GroovyMAME you might be able to send it 120Hz modes to get low resolution that way, and still be able to play VGA stuff as well.
