    Hi All

    Just ordered a NTSC 32x and i have a asian PAL Megadrive that ive fitted a 50/60HZ switch to the 32x should run fine as long as im switched to 60hz on the megadrive, is this correct or will i have to do further mods ??

    Yes should work. With only that one mod, the region locked 32x games have to be American.

    It doesn't matter when using RGB but composite video will become NTSC since it's what an NTSC 32x outputs.

    Yeah the switch also changes which region CD drives work. (There are ways like flash carts to load a region free bios.)
