Anyone using a Macintosh Radius GS/C-MP Video Card (Nubus)?
Posted by: pfuentes69 on 2022-05-30 00:56:09 Hello, I could maybe get one of these cards and I wonder if anyone has experience with it. In particular... Did anyone use successfully a VGA adaptor to connect it to a modern display? Txs!
Posted by: ArmorAlley on 2022-05-30 01:00:11 I have one of these cards and it has a very particular resolution (1178x852?). It does give 24-bit colour though. When I tried it out, none of my monitors supported the resolution in question. I must actually try it again with one of my 1600x1200 monitors. They seem to support everything.

As CRT I don't have anything that big, so I was just planning to use a Full HD LCD with one of these adapters: Checking twice I see now that the adapter supports 1152x870... I guess it's unlikely it would work for me.
Posted by: slomacuser on 2022-05-30 01:20:00 Radius GS/C, GS/C-M The cards are unaccelerated and support the following resolution/color combinations: 1152 x 882, up to 24-bit
Posted by: cheesestraws on 2022-05-30 01:22:20 This might be the point where I predictably stick my head over the parapet and recommend picking up an Extron RGB-HDMI 300 scaler: cheapish ones come up pretty regularly on the usual auction site suspects and at least for me they've been absolutely brilliant for non-PC-style video resolutions that come out of a Mac. Back on topic...
