First off i like how you went slowly over each component exactly explaining how you did stuff. The power cord i find a bit sloppy but everything else is great. Nice inside wires are routed perfectly. Now my hands are soo itching, i've been wanting to make a tabletop cabinet for years. The problem is that i'm in an appartment where there is no room to build one. Cant use tools inside this video just makes that itch even greater. I might ask my parents to use there garden in the summer and ask my dad for some help on making one.

Thanks for the excellent videos! I'll be using your hinged back with the motherboard mounted on the back wall idea for sure. I was trying to figure out exactly how I was going to mount mine. I'll be using a 23" 1080p wide screen monitor that I have as a spare right now. Again, thanks for the videos they are a great guide and information source!

1920 x 1080 is a widescreen or rectangular aspect ratio. most old games were designed to produce a square-ish or 4 x 3 aspect ratio. So theoretically most of these old games will fit better on a 1600 x 1200 screen without any black bars on either side of the screen. hope this helps

Nice cab! I'm in the middle of building one as well. In response to your unfinished monitor/bezel/plexiglass situation: have you looked into "smoked plexi"? Look at the BYOAC forums. There seems to be a lot of people using it. From what they say, it softens the brightness, and isn't as glarey as the clear. Just a thought. Nice work!!

You could have used a CRT monitor instead of a LCD one to prevent that much glare, bonus is that it has that authentic arcade feel. For arcade and old system emulation you don't even need a good resolution because they were made with that resolution. Only problem is size.
@FifthDread10 жыл бұрын
A CRT display would be good for the classics but would definitely not fit inside the bartop arcade. Maybe a full cabinet. Also, I wanted to use my 1600x1200 display as it is really high resolution and looks great for more modern titles that can utilize that resolution.
