#TV Monitors
3 messages in this thread
Ok, here is hopefully my last hardware buying question for a while.
I need to get a 13" TV Monitor to use with 3DS and the Targa+ board I am
getting. Can anyone recommend a good model? I'd like to spend $500 or less.
Is it important to have 400+ lines of resolution? I'm also getting an
EVO-9650. Thanks.

I just bought a Sony PVM 1390 for the same setup as you have. I am happy with
it and would recommend it.

You're going to love my solution! I recently had my targa monitor blow a tube
and wasn't prepared to spend the necessary $$$$ to duplicate my mitsubishi 13".
I started shopping around and found a Panasonic 13" data grade CGA monitor for
$75.00 at a used computer pawn shop. There are several varieties out there
with dot pitch .31 and .41 which work great. Not Y/C but they are much higher
quality than a regular TV with video in. Try Commodor and Magnavox as well. I
found the Panasonic had slight sharper picture especially in the corners. If
your handy you can locate the 75 ohm resistor on the PC board, cut it and
modify for video loop thru with external termination. I do miss having blue
gun though!
