![Sony Playstation Framemeister RGB Custom Cable [SH ep.40]
Has watching a pair of hands play with wires been so much fun? Wait for the ending comparison video to see a match of VF4 Evo at the height of my powers, but still couldnt hold a candle to any of my Japanese heroes. Ah, the memories.
BTW, dont mention 480p in the comments section just yet or Ill point you here! I have a hunch that the Framemeister can sync on green.
WHAT?
Information to build a custom cable to connect an XRGB Mini Framemeister to a Playstation 1 or 2.... or 3, but that would be silly. In actuality, information on how to build any custom cable you really want to... the possibilities!
WHY?
Cause the damned JP21 and SCART cables are too damned long and bulky... and building your own is a cheap and, as you will see, a worthy alternative.
