thats what i'm thinking.

the big question to ask is when you play now is there a bunch of jaggy horizontal lines?


not jaggy lines....more like blurred poor color seperation and stuff. i opted not to buy any s-video cables...and i cannot run the red/green/blue component. im not about to spend 50 bucks on cables that will give me 5% noticable difference i did however find this online:




...says it only works with japan standards tho. RGB-2+ :dunno:






still doing some research. any input is appreciated.

That looks like RGB cables, which are largely useless here in the US (Though, FYI, Japan also uses the NTSC standard... the only reason why we cant share movies/games are region restrictions).

Buy the S-vid cables. It's VERY much worth it over composite.

Or get this and add on the component cables they sell:

Your best bet for the highest quality, but may take up to 2 weeks with standard shipping (You can expedite, though)

if he doesnt have jagged horisontal lines he prolly has a deinterlacing chip in the monitor somewhere.... or it's built to be able to displace interlaced stuff well... i'd say just go with S-video in that case, the color separation should suffice and the price is right...

S-video is better than what i have now..but I want the best I can get with the setup. The VGA progressive scan box is exactly what im looking for for the best quality. I want to see if i can get that part here locally
