No, but I did have Maximus Arcade running and Mala. You shouldn't have any issues though...its still at its core an ATI card.  Hyperspin should be fine, its Hyperpin that would have issues if used with an arcade monitor as you typically want higher resolutions with Hyperpin, unlike Hyperspin.

Hadn't seen that card close-up. Short board on it. Only 64-bit, too.

Ya it is. No issues up to about 2005 but beyond that for 3d anyways, the card is pretty crippled.  Best I have managed ST: IV for example with most gfx options turned off is about 28fps...hardly in the playable territory :(

But for what it was designed for, the classics etc its a great card.

Mickelonis:
Sorry to bump an old post, but WOW, this is great!

Thanks for putting this up, it helps clear a lot up for me.

Pretty nice monitor isn't it? I own the same one =)

Epyx:
Glad it helped, just let me know if you have additional questions. Also, use that utility I mentioned in your other thread, Trisync on the Ultimarc site...it will make your WGD9800 really shine in 640x480/800x600 for higher res Mame games and of course Maximus arcade.
