  1. Sadly no composite mode. I'd also like to use a PS2 - so I'd need something for both GameCube and PS2
  2. I hope this image answers your question - it works in this combination btw, but the image is only black and white. Both the green YPbPr and white L/R Audio are 3,5mm (on the TV)
  3. Hello LTT-Forum, I've bought a 4k Smart TV with these connections: Additionally there are two adapter cables for YpbPr and L/R (im ignoring the L/R cable) now to my problem: I would like to attach my GameCube, PlayStation 2 to my TV (with hopefully not loosing any quality or adding latency) So i need to somehow connect these What would you recommend to be the best way to do so? Convert to HDMI and use HDMI or USB maybe? Is there even a way to get from composite to component so i can use the 3,5mm YPbPr? As i said I'd like to have it to not loose any quality and add (if possible) unnoticable latency. Obviously the cheaper the better - i just want it to work and to feel just as if i'd be using a tv with SCART. Thanks in advance. Edit: I've heard that there are TV's that can just take the yellow composite and have it put into the blue component, sadly this doesn't work on mine.
  4. Hello guys. I'm looking into buying a 55 inch 4k 60fps TV for gaming. I want to use it for both my PC and Consoles (both newer consoles and older ones such as ps2, gamecube) Some specs I'd like to have for it: - 4k 60 fps - 55 inch - ambilight / bias lighting (led's on the sides, preferably all / 3 sides) - no oled tv - doesn't have to be a smart tv (can be a "dumb" tv if possible / cheaper) - fast "enough" rensponse times - not curved - maximum 800€ - HDR I live in germany and therefore would only preferably buy them in europe. Some TV's I've already found: TCL U55P6046 LG 55UJ6309 Hisense H55NEC5205 Sony KD-55XE7005 Samsung MU6199 Philips 55PUS6482/12 I looked around in the forum beforehand but couldn't really find another new-ish thread about this. I've only heard bad things about oled so far - if you can convince me to one which is in the price range i would also appreciate it. If there are better TV's for gaming coming soon, i could also wait. Thanks for helping out.
  5. Well, I was kinda digging through the internet and settled on two setups, which I'd like to present you. I'd like to know your opinions, which one you'd rather choose and why, also if you'd swap any components and why exactly: The 5820k setup: CPU: Intel Core i7-5820K, 6x 3.30GHz, 405,45 € Motherboard: MSI X99S SLI PLUS, ATX, Sockel LGA 2011-3, DDR4 234,90 € GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 970 Gaming 4G, 4GB GDDR5 374,99 € RAM: 16GB-Kit Crucial Ballistix Sport DDR4 2400 MT/s DIMM 288pin, 4GBx4 188,02 € Case Thermaltake Overseer RX-I 114,94 € SSD Samsung SSD 850 EVO SATA 6Gb/s 250 GB 109,99 € Disc-drive Samsung SH-224DB 11,75 € Cooler: be quiet! Shadow Rock 2 39,10 Power: be quiet! PURE POWER L8 600W 78,43 € Total: 1557,57€ ( ~1650$ ) The 4790k setup CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K Box, LGA1150 344,99 € Motherboard: ASUS MAXIMUS VII HERO Gaming MB, Socket 1150, ATX 197,90 € GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 970 Gaming 4G, 4GB GDDR5 374,99 € RAM: 16 GB-Kit Kingston 1600MHz DDR3 CL9 DIMM XMP Beast Series 147,69 € Case Thermaltake Overseer RX-I 114,94 € SSD Samsung SSD 850 EVO SATA 6Gb/s 250 GB 109,99 € Disc-drive Samsung SH-224DB 11,75 € Cooler: be quiet! Shadow Rock 2 39,10 Power: be quiet! PURE POWER L8 600W 78,43 € Total 1419,78€ ( ~1500$ ) As you can see, I don't really need a new hard drive, or a new operation system. Also, I've settled on staying at 1080p and probably just being downsampling from higher resolutions to 1080p So, what are your opinions? What should I probably change and what setup do you like more?
  6. Hello everyone. My current system: Intel Core i7 CPU 920 (2,67GHz x 4) ATI Radeon HD 6950 6144 MB DDR3 Triple Channel 533.3 MHz has gotten pretty old over the course of over 6 years (except for the graphics card) and is just not capable to be gaming at 60fps, 1080p and max graphic settings, which i really desire. So, i've got a pretty high budget (We're talking 1500+ EURO (yep, im from Europe)) Now, I was really hoping to set up a system, which would be rather expensive (just as my old one was), but also be able to hold for quite a long time too or even just being easily upgradeable. My first thoughts went to the processor: i7 4790k or i7 5820k. Obviously, the 5820k would also mean a x99-motherboard and ddr4 ram: more expensive. But as i mentioned before, I'm really trying to think more into the future, why ddr4 and a newer socket for the mainboard doesn't seem so bad, although the price. By reading various stuff about the topic on ddr4 ram or the 4790k vs 5820k, gaming wise there just doesn't seem to be aspects which favor the more expensive ddr4 and 5820k, but I was really hoping to get a perspective from you people. Well, I should kind of reveal my plans of how i'd like to be gaming at all: 1080p just as i mentioned, but I'm considering to maybe switch to 4k (is it even making such a big difference for the higher price (new screen and better graphics card) ?) Just in general, some suggestions for my situation would be really helpful. Also, while we are at the topic: If I'd stay at 1080p, would you rather prefer a GTX 970 or R9 290X? Thank you in advance.
