Title: VGA Calbe to my tft monitor. Help me, please.
Post by: insert_coin on May 02, 2003, 12:50:26 AM

Hi!

I have an Apple tft monitor with adc connector (not vga), and I want connect it to my Game Cube via VGA Cable.
Before, I need a VGA to ADC Conversion Box where I must connect the vga cable of GC, and the monitor to conversion box (other side)

You know? Who can help me? I want to buy it, but I am not safe if that conversion box supports my Game Cube if I could, I sell my crt monitor for buy the conversion box)

Gefen conversion box: url=http://www.gefen.com/kvm/product.jsp?prod_id=1301
My monitor: http://www.apple.com/displays/asd17/


Thanx!!!

I do not think that it will work, based on this quote from the product page for the converter:

Your Apple Flat Panel Display will only work at its native resolution when using the VGA to ADC Conversion Box.

Apple Flat Panel Resolution
15" 1024x768 @ 60hz
17" 1280x1024 @ 60hz
20" 1680x1050 @ 60hz
22" 1600x1024 @ 60hz
23" 1920x1200 @ 60hz

The Gamecube will only do 640x480@60hz.

If it does work it would end up being much smaller, on the 15'' it would only use about 40% of the monitor.
