Part 1 of 2: Bread-bin Commodore 64 machines with main board revision 250407 and KU-14194HB have relatively soft and blurry video output. Also, there are numerous VIC-II chips that work on these machines. Is there any difference between the different revisions of VIC-II chips? Can we do anything to improve the quality of the video output on these old machines? Watch to find out!
