Barn Find: ATI X600 Pro NIB. Should I upgrade from ArcadeVGA 9250?
« on: March 23, 2021, 05:45:12 pm »
I built my GroovyMAME cabinet circa 2009 and haven't upgraded it since. It has a Wells Gardner D9400 driven by an ArcadeVGA 9250 and works great. I've been thinking it's overdue for an upgrade so today I rummaged around in some old boxes for graphics cards and came up with a NIB X600 Pro (see attached image). From ATI I also found a 1950, 3850 and 9200. I probably pulled these from QA, dev or trade show systems being junked at various times (the advantages of being a pack rat with a long career working in high tech startups).

Which one would be better than the ArcadeVGA to drive my multi-scan D9400 for the next decade? :-)
