It looks like the same sized LCD as the PS1 screens, but without the rounded circuit board that takes up all the space.
Anyone know what the voltage and current needs of this screen are?

I've heard bad things about Intec screens, in all honesty.
If looking on eBay, look for Zenith screens, for Playstation, XBox, or GameCube. THey are rounded like the PSOne screens, but have the speakers down lower, and are black instead of white.
I usually buy from this guy;

His screens (the Zenith ones I mentioned above) are sold for $20 shipped. He gets them in all the time, so check often- and he sells them in lots, however many he has, however many you want to get.

Thanks. I've gotten a few screens from him. I think they're seconds because one of them had a fried power supply.CFC Fodder wrote:I've heard bad things about Intec screens, in all honesty.

In any event, I was interested in the game cube one I posted, because an e-bay seller has a lot of 30 of them for 150 bucks and if they were a quality screen, I'd be inclined to stock up. If they're not so good, I'm not interested. The only thing that was intriguing is that it looks narrower.
size shouldn't be much of an issue for my particular project (as a matter of fact, i settled on a 5" screen when nothing else was affordable). as for being grainy, well i guess i'll have to see how that effects an 8-bit system.Valium wrote:They're grainy, and the boards are thick.grossaffe wrote:so its really THAT bad? i mean... really?Valium wrote:It's a good thing they're only $5, they aren't worth a cent more than that.
even for something as simple graphically as a NES?
