Naomi on 15khz monitor
I'm interested in getting a naomi setup in the short term, but my monitor is only 15/25khz. I understand the naomi has a dip switch for 15khz, but does it work with all games, most games or only "some" games?

As far as I know it works with all games, you will also need a IO board to go with it and a power supply. I found on the Naomi it tends to flicker at 15 Khz as it is still hi res but displays a interlaced image which is fine at a distance but not when you are close to a screen.Dandy_Sephy wrote:I'm interested in getting a naomi setup in the short term, but my monitor is only 15/25khz.

The good thing about a Naomi is it is a Dreamcast in disguise so if you have one of those and a CRT TV just plug it in and sit two foot from your TV and that will be the image you would get on your cab at 15Khz.

Re: Naomi on 15khz monitor
A little flicker I can tolerate, after all I spent a couple of days staring at a very flickery windows display while setting up the cab. Unfortunately, while I still have a DC somewhere I don't have access to a decent sized crt anymore aside from the 28" polo in my cab

IIRC there is at least 1 game which is 31K only, but for the life of me I can't remember what it is.

That list doesn't seem too worrying, HOTD2 asideandygeezer wrote:F355, Initial D series, Strike Fighter, Airline Pilots, HOTD2 are all 31K
