watch that retro 8 bit guy's guide to modifying consumer crts for RGB and its basically like that with more hole boring and some cutting of metal

Just get a VGA monitor, you sperg. If it can’t output an analog signal with combined sync by default, what’s the point?

>>6021374
it is outputting rgbs you idiot vga is rgbs. why would i get a monitor when i can easily just add some bncs or solder. no scaling is happening youre just a fucking idiot.

It’s designed to take RGBHV since the spec has two sync pins, mong. You can pass combined sync over one or the other pins, but what’s the point with a PC when a N-series PVM like the one you have can’t resolve resolutions other than 240p/480i and PCs were standardized around higher resolutions over 25 years ago?

>why would i get a monitor when i can easily just add some bncs or solder. no scaling is happening youre just a fucking idiot.
Because you can get better visual fidelity, save yourself a few hours of labor, and not butcher a working PVM to make a ghetto AIO that looks worse than connecting the PC to a monitor built for it.

> ghetto AIO that looks worse
i wanted an AIO, and i think it looks cool. its not quite finished (will look much cooler) and the case was old and scratched badly, anyways. it's much less of an creepy eyesore than before. now it's a conversation piece. it has one power cable that powers the motherboard and the monitor. its cool. there arent a mess of cables going into it on the back. it was my extra PVM. saying vga isnt natively outputting rgbs when all you have to do is basically twist two of the wires together is a pretty weak argument. i learned a lot doing this, it didn't cost much at all, and i will enjoy it for a long time.

also, can easily output to monitors made for higher resolutions via the DVI and HDMI outputs that now come out the back... without having to turn on the monitor. its objectively neato mosquito, admit it.
