Quadro P6000, I think.

>>5507485
Everything is analog. Digital is an abstraction. Unless you zoom in far enough, then things are quantized again.

>>5507485
Wii U

>>5507485
Maybe your monitor's controller board? The bare panel has an analog ribbon connection the brains.

>>5507485
The most current PC with the most current card that can output component via an adapter. Are you wanting to play on an old cancer ray tube? The only analog video signal that adds any desirable distortion is composite video. It makes retro games look right. I go out of my way to simulate it when emulating.

>>5507503
This is true for audio signals, but even for digital video signals?

>>5507738
I mean on a physical level. The wires don't know they're carrying data,

>>5507509
I'm looking for component video, sorry I forgot to put it in the op.

>>5508134
I suspect current GPUs can with a passive adapter that gets an analog VGA signal through one of the DVI connectors, and a VGA-component adapter on the other end. I have the adapters, but no VGA cable here to test.

>>5508134
Component video is analog.
Rgb is also analog unless you're talking specifically digital rgb which is ega shit.

>>5508149
Geforce 980 was the last card with a DAC. Nothing newer will have dvi-a

>>5507485
Whatever your local UHF broadcaster is/was using

I currently use an active HDMI to VGA converter along with a VGA to SCART cable. At 240p on a CRT TV shit looks fucking neato, and I'm using a cheap but not dated GPU (RX 570)

>>5508323
Pics or GTFO, all the converters I've seen have has issues with aspect ratios and picture quality.

Honestly best option if you’re willing to fork out the cash, hunt down an Extron emotia on ebay, output a 480p signal through vga and it will downscale it to 240p.

>>5508173
>Geforce 980 was the last card with a DAC
It was not. It was the Quadro GP100.
>but anon that costs $5000
It does now. But in a few years it won't, and then people will be buying them to use for gaming on analog displays.

However, the P6000 is still the most powerful GPU with an analog output.

>>5507485
A PC with CRT Emudriver.

>>5511631
Does that output component video?

>>5511631
>need display port to VGA adapters
>no dvi-a
Weird.

>>5507504
I know OP didn't specifically ask for it but the Wii U doesn't support 240p
>>5508134
if you're emulating use a regular Wii or a PC if you can figure out all the adapters and stuff

>>5511710
You still need a GPU that has analog output though. Newer GPUs only support analog without a converter.

>>5512281
*only support digital

>>5512228
VGA with an adapter, you'd need a transcoder to change it to component

>>5512264
Wii then

>>5512264
How would I do that with a PC, do I need an incoder. If so what do y'all recomend.

>>5510119
Hard to make a proper picture with my shitty phone, but basically it's limited to super resolutions (unlike using VGA or DVI-I directly on older GPUs), which is not perfect but very, very close. It looks exactly the same as plugging it in directly if using said resolutions.

I mean shit, I don't know how HDMI active adapters work. But for 10 bucks I wanted to try and turns out it works without problems. No longer do I need a different computer with an older GPU.

This works.

>>5513371
Also lemme make this clear: You can turn it into the most powerful thing, but it might not be convenient for you. One problem with CRT EmuDriver is that it does replace whatever other driver you use. So you're stuck with an older version of AMD graphics which might not work as well as the latest shit. So if you use that computer for more than this, you might feel it's a pain in the ass. I'm constantly switching drivers and it's not pleasant.

I bought one of these and the video output is terrible, even after trying to calibrate it manually.

>>5513391
Yeah, stuff like this is known crap. That exact form factor even.

As long as you have a few GPIO pins it's really trivial to rig up a DAC and add analog video output to any microprocessor. They might not be the "most powerful" thing you can get, but a high end SBC should be able to handle just about any console for which an emulator exists.

>spotted the memeberryfag
lol. Those turds can barely SNES even without bit banging video

>>5514501
Not him but what SNES game can't you play on memeberry? Every one I've tried works perfectly. Demon's Crest, Yoshi's Island, etc. all fine.

>>5514514
>i can play some meme games using an inaccurate emulator designed to run on 20 year old hardware using frame skip, etc
lol

Why should it be different between video and audio?
Audio has PCM samples, video has RGB or YCC samples.
And as an analog (heh) to digital screens, we have headphones with digital USB connections.
