    Title says it all guys. I'm after an official Sega VGA box for the Dreamcast, or the Performance branded one. With a pic of the device working if possible.

    I am located in the Essex region of the United Kingdom.

    Cheers!

    Yeah i've been looking at your Hanzo for a while now :) The only thing that worries me is the open design, kind of a dust magnet :/

    I have a lot of PCB with the same design, only plexi as a case, and it's fine.
    If you are really a maniac, buy an anti-duster spray.

    VGA box/cables are all the same, i mean you wont have a better quality with a 15dollars cable or the official VGA Box so for the same price of a classic VGA Box that you can find on ebay, you better buy the Hanzo with has a Scanlier and a 15kHz/31kHz switch.

    Those chips are Skynet proof, I tried everything to stop them and they still run, dust, water, static, nothing can stop it.
    Then I remembered, when I was in the university, we had a logic lab course, we're experimenting those 74x74 chips and a girl could burn it at last, I couldn't believe in my eyes... funny days...

    You can clean its board and plexi cover whenever you want, it`s very easy to open just 4 screws. Dust &dirt is everywhere.
    Try cleaning an ordinary cable with wet wipes and see how it turns to darkest black... immediately.
    I can admit easily that I even touched its circuit while running and nothing happens, so nothing can stop it from working.

    I recommend a good quality VGA cable to get better video. I cut many cables to examine how they're build, and not all are same despite their thickness... This is required for every VGA box or equipment... I am currently using a Vivanco (German brand), I am satisfied about it, probably there can be better ones.
