    CookieNapper Check this post, especially the DP2VGAHD20 as it's one of the most reliable, performant and cheap good adapters on the market.

    jrodefeld Failing MCZ3001D in the Sony TV's had a symptom where they will work only if the temperature is high enough. Can you try checking if the issue correlates with the room temperature? I'm pretty sure that amber flashing is B+ voltage line issue, and that IC is the main regulator for that...

    I've seen that NOS 2070sb for sale on avito for 10k roubles = 135 usd. So that guy bought it and decided to sell it on ebay, huh. Strat_84 it seems like my F520 problems which I've encountered after placing a cap on the B+ line in reverse polarity are tied to that MCZ3001D IC. I've checked...

    It's one of the cheapest and one of the best. A good one at least. Recently I was able to compare some 240 Hz IPS panels and an OLED CX to my 2070sb's, so maybe some of you guys will find the info interesting.

    Funny thing I've noticed with Startech DP2VGAHD20, if I disable the monitor using Win-P combo the adapter / AMD driver freaks out and the display starts to connect/disconnect in devices manager with like a 2 second interval causing mouse stutters. Derupter Flybye have you ever noticed such an...

    My friend got the Vention AFVHB, so there's a report about it. Makes the picture blurry after 247 Mhz. Does interlaced resolutions fine, like 1440x1080 at 160Hz or 2048x1536 at 107 Hz (244 MHz, just before that mosaic effect)

    AFAIK not possible at all on DP adapters. Probably possible with HDMI adapters, maybe Derupter can shed the light on that question. Also wait till Rtas will test out the new Vention HDMI adapter :)

    Got some spare parts for my FW900 and F520 :) FW900 with bad coating and blown FBT and a E530 with some kind of a power supply problem but a supposedly healthy tube.

    I've got my DP2VGAHD20 yesterday too, capable of 375Mhz just like Flybye 's sample. No problems at all even at 2048x1536 82Hz.

    I have not thought about that, there was indeed a huge amount of dust inside. About the temps, I'd say they are around 45-50C after warmup with a bright picture shown on the screen now.

    Please clarify if you're using service menu or not. If you are using the service menu - is one of your gains at 6500K is maxed out at FF value? If so, those 72cdmm2 are really the maximum the tube can put out. Hmm. Video amp overheat? Replacing thermal paste and adding two extra screws to...

    Why dont you calibrate it via displaycal calibration (before profiling screen) by using service menu? Those mitsubishi tubes are very long lasting, my 20k hour 22b4 easily calibrated to 100cd/mm2 on every color temp. I've figured out my problems with WPB, had to lower G2 a bit more. Perfect...

    Scored an F520 with 20k hours on it, and boy it's a sharp one. Had some trouble setting the right G2 in WPB, but it calibrates nicely. Funny how it's considerably smaller than a 22b4, I thought the difference would be barely noticeable.

    For the TTL cable part - the 5v and GND could often mess up the connection between WinDAS and the monitor sometimes, so you can also try without them, just TX and RX.
