Any chance this monitor could support 15khz over RGB?

Post by drunkninja24 »

Looking to replace the CRT I currently have my 360 hooked into, happened across this:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Digital-VRCX1-2 ... 9239wt_902

unfotunately, there isn't much information at all on the web for this model number, the main thing that caught my eye was what look to be BNC RGBHV connectors. I know this in and of itself isn't an indication of the resolutions it supports, but wondered if anyone out there might have more info.

I used to have a CRT that had a OSD that looked like that, but it did not sync to anything below 31khz.
I would say that the majority of VGA monitors are not going to sync below 31 khz, regardless of BNC connectors.

With a dot pitch of .28, and support for 1600x1200, I'd say it is pretty unlikely the monitor will sync to 15khz

Very very few high-res CRT monitors sync to 15KHz, it should always be assumed as a no unless you find specific info saying yes.

Never heard of that company. Wonder how it stacks up to Trinitron and Diamondtrons.

Digital was the big name in workstation / mainframe computers outside IBM, before Wintel boxes came into existence. This is really late stuff for them, I think they went under not long after.
