Are these any good??

I wanna put one in my boardmaster shell with a cheap PSU.

It depends on how you define "good". From what I've been reading, most people hate them - but they're cheap and do the job. Mine hasn't given me any problems.

Picture mainly?? Is it ok (I'm not asking for perfection.)

As far as I'm concerned, the picture is great. I'm sure a million people will wade in and contradict me, so I'll qualify that by saying I generally don't care about small display problems - so I could be missing something.

I use it for MVS and horizontal boards on my TV and they look really nice through the RGB SCART lead I use; crisp and clear.

The worst of it is how impractical they are when swapping boards, they need a harness extension really.

Output quality is fine, it is after all just a board with some connectors soldered on and very little else

If you are after one Andy, hit me up and i'll do you a deal on one with a small harness

EDIT: on second thoughts, mine is the one with Mega Drive controller ports, probably not ideal for what you have in mind

Yea, I'm after the MK3 version iirc. Any idea on a suitable PSU for it.

Pretty much any ATX that has a -5v on pin 18 if you have any boards that require it, or any ATX if not

CPS2 No -5v for me.....

hi did you get the MK3 board in the end?

I had the old MegaDrive one and it didnt emulate the sound correctly on SSF2X, but the sound emulated fine on some other CPS2 games... just wondering for a quick solution if these are any good..
