Wells Gardner K7500 Any Thoughts
« on: December 31, 2002, 03:33:18 pm »
I'm thinking of using this monitor in my cab. It is classified as an EGA "Mid-resolution" monitor.

It's 25".

Will this monitor run at only 15 Khz?

Can I run Windows at 640 X 480? (I'd like to run other emulators as well as MAME and I need windows functionality for this. I'm not sure If I need to use a vga type monitor for this scenario such as the Wells D9200.

I am looking for as close to arcade perfect as possible. (Isn't everyone)

Any thoughts or comments on using this monitor?

well,whats the plan?
how you are planing windows in arcade monitor.
i have k7400 through scan converter and result is very arcadish(I LOVE ;D).
I bought scan converter because i have no idea how to get windows with software and other things but if you do plan on getting scan converter then i dont think mid resolution would work.only 15 khz works with scan converter i believe(atleast the one i have now).

Will this monitor run windows using the not yet released video card from Ultimarc?
