Posted December 29, 2013 Author Nice build! What would have been ultra cool is having a terminal display on the CRT, and maybe some nixie tubes. Yeah but those connectors in the crt were so old and weird to me that i decided to leave it without picture. Someone could have had the interest to look up all the voltages and stuff.. But that would have taken so many hours and days to find some kind of guide to do that And those tubes are not completely forgotten idea I might someday look in to it a little more. Maybe. |OscillosC Build|+ Raspberry Pi [NAS] + Another G5 + Personal + HTPC: Asus Z87-A - Intel Core i5 4670K @ 4.5ghz 1.15v - Noctua NH-D14 - Gigabyte Radeon HD7870 OC @ 1170mhz core- Kingston HyperX 8gb 1600mhz CL9 - Samsung 840 PRO 128Gb SSD for Windows- Kingston V300 120gb for Ubuntu- WD Caviar Black 1Tb For games and programs - WD Caviar Green 2Tb For videos, photos, music, and backups- Seasonic P660 XP2 Platinum - Windows 8.1 PRO - Ubuntu 14.04 - Modded Bitfenix Ghost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 30, 2013 I've got some experience with (audio)tubes, and after giving the CRT a thought (we talked about it when I was visiting the op) I reckoned it would be one helluva job.. You'd need to design & build a controller for the CRT, something that would take VGA in, do its magic and control the crt. Even if u knew the voltages/pin outs, id say it would be very difficult. But would've been damn cool tho Current rig: i7-5820K, R5E, 1070ti (windows), Radeon HD7850 (Mac), a bunch of SSDs and HDDs, running MacOS Mojave, Windows 10 + a bunch of debian servers on Proxmox KVM hypervisor Laptop: MacBook Pro 13" 2017 Previous projects: Razmac G5, Server, zenbox HTPC See my GitHub profile!

Posted January 1, 2014 Author [uPDATE PICS] So here it is at my dads house. It is temporarily on some kind of shelter (An old one where they used to sell train tickets in the past) It is up there because his router isn't so good and his house is very toughly built But i got it up and running now here too. It is attached to a samsung 32" tv in the bedroom. Good for internet tv Rapoo wireless keyboard and mouse, good for use in the bed. |OscillosC Build|+ Raspberry Pi [NAS] + Another G5 + Personal + HTPC: Asus Z87-A - Intel Core i5 4670K @ 4.5ghz 1.15v - Noctua NH-D14 - Gigabyte Radeon HD7870 OC @ 1170mhz core- Kingston HyperX 8gb 1600mhz CL9 - Samsung 840 PRO 128Gb SSD for Windows- Kingston V300 120gb for Ubuntu- WD Caviar Black 1Tb For games and programs - WD Caviar Green 2Tb For videos, photos, music, and backups- Seasonic P660 XP2 Platinum - Windows 8.1 PRO - Ubuntu 14.04 - Modded Bitfenix Ghost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 1, 2014 Very nice build. I like how it looks. I was hoping that you will be able to make that CRT function but I guess that you wouldnt have space to mount your MoBo then. Anyway, really nice. I enjoyed watching it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 1, 2014 Thank you! And yeah... That crt is just too hard for me. Maybe there could be some small lcd behind the glass? If youre up to challenge then go for it. But bringing up CRT feel with LCD panel will be really hard.But it looks really nice even without it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
