yes i'm using mine atm, its rgb 15khz only no composite, you have to wire up a din to scart like i did with a take off for audio or you can buy an adapter, and yes it will do 60hz you just have to twist the v-hold knob on the back of the set, only problem i had was at first was the brightness was too low even with the know on the side set to full, you have to take the back off and adjust the sub-bright pot on the inside,monitor is sharp as fuck and coloura are vibrant, better than an lcd, im convinced its in oled territory, only issue is it will only tate the opposite way to standard, tate-ing the usual way the colours go all fucky, heres a vid of espgaluda the conversion is shit so you only get a glimpse of its brilliance for a spit second towards the end of the vid, will post some more pics if this tread doesnt archive,

i got my first rgb lead years back for my ps2, after someone gave me an ntsc copy of SoTC, it played in black and white on my pal trinitron using stock sony av cables,

when i got the cable i didnt really notice much difference in picture quality, i just remember it making the picture and colours darker, that was back in 2005,

recently i dug my ps2 out and plugged it in to an old lcd with the stock sony av cables, and it looked absolutely potato as shit, it was so bad there was no way i could enjoy playing anything, i dug out my old rgb cables, it has a switch to change between AV/RGB, set to av it looks just as shit as the sony cables, set to RGB, fucking POW!, the colours just pop, and the image sharpens up alot, i realised this is how its supposed to look, with stock av (composite) the colours are faded and washed out with brightness, for me its now RGB with everything, no going back.

my 29" trinitron is in storage, but i have my old amstrad cpc/6128 monitor from 1984, which has been sat in my loft for 25+ yrs, just found out its a 15khz rgb monitor, i plugged in my ps2, and the picture is so bright and vibrant and everything is so sharp, much like ur pic it puts lcds to shame,

heres espgaluda on ps2, tate which outputs 240p natively, the video doesnt do it justice but at the title screen at the end of the vid you can see how good it looks but only for a fraction of a second
