Some of the 1-chips are prone to a bit of ghosting, I believe. That said, the sharpness does sometimes come at a cost. But when the day comes that I do invest in something like a Retrotink 5X, I'd be able to tell just by plugging it in with RGB cables and looking at my tv. But since I'm just playing it connected to a Trinitron (I have a Super NT for my HDTV), I can't actually see with my own eyes if it's a 1 chip. Bought new in the summer or Fall of 1995, it could easily go either way with what iteration of the system it is. ![]() That's also why I don't actually know what mine is. I can easily tell which iteration is being used when someone's streaming or recording footage via RGB since a 1-chip looks just like an emulator or Super NT while the older iteration looks quite soft. The less sharp video quality though is quite evident when ran through a decent upscaler connected to a HDTV. And even then I'm not sure how evident it would be on a high end CRT display since that tv technology does a good job of concealing some image flaws. ![]() ![]() The differences only become obvious via RGB.
