YMMV, at around 3 AM EST they started a "circle" deal to take $150 off of a PS5 Disc edition (original, not slim) ,I ordered one at my local target (which now shows out of stock), app claims I can go pick it up in a couple hours... Apparently they'll bring it out to my car so I can avoid the...
I prefer using my original hardware as well but from a preservation point of view FPGA may be the best way to get precision "replication" of original hardware, wich may be more precise than emulation. Specifically if we think about how huge speed running is and how seriously it's taken. Would we...
Hi, looking for another Nintendo DS. A fellow [H] member hooked me up with a real nice 3ds that I gave my kid for Christmas except I can never use it lol.
I want to play Dragon Quest IX but the kid is addicted to animal crossing so I can never get on in the evenings. It's a regular DS game and...
Definitely not worth it for any practical reason. I just like having a screen with analog (s-video/composite) inputs for my ancient games.. sure I could just buy scalers but meh... More of a hobby mixed with some nostalgia for me.
Interesting seeing this thread pop up, I'm actually in the process of planning to replace the CCFL/Inverter in my Dell 2007WFP monitors with LEDs but these monitors are pretty complicated.. Maybe that's an avenue to explore to get away from the CCFLs and pwm flicker
Dual boot XP and Windows 7 like we all did in the late 2000s :p. Both OSes will run fine on the Phenom. I ran a Phenom II X4 955BE from 2009 all the way to 2014 on windows 7 + XP with a Radeon HD 5770. If the GPU starts bleeding, there are much better video cards with XP support all the way up...
Looking to do some last second Christmas shopping..
PC HARDWARE:
I'm looking for something like this for my nephew: https://www.microcenter.com/product/5006114/amd-ryzen-5-3600-with-wraith-stealth-cooler,-gigabyte-b450m-ds3h-wifi,-cpu-motherboard-combo
Except I don't live near a microcenter, so...
^^ Maybe I'll buy a cheap one to gamble on and then go from there with repairs, but so far the two from ebay are being returned because they were $70~ a pop and the sellers said "tested / working", so I'm not really willing to try repairing those myself if you know what I mean, I messaged them...
Apparently the snes jr isn't equipped to output RGB. I already bought "HD Retrovision" component cables AND a retrotink for the early models I bought. I see a mod chip for the jr. that I'm equipped to install, but this all comes out to a bit more money then I had on offer lol. I didn't really do...
No emulation guys, thanks. This is for a streaming/youtubing thing and all about authentic hardware.. there's zillions of them on eBay, just had some bad luck. I'll keep browsing there.
I need a Super Nintendo (the old cartridge based console from the 90s).. the kids are going hard on the retro gaming and so far I've tried two bundles from eBay now, one wouldn't work at all and the other completely freaked out on 3d looking "mode 7" games like Zelda and Mario kart.
I got the...
