      Thanks for the info!

      Megari, I saw you recommended luma sync above but it sounds like I’d need to mod the console (flying lead from one of the chip pins along with a few components to drop the voltage?).
      Is the higher risk of sync loss from the sync stripper a real concern or likely to be a negligible effect?

        Hi! I also have a RGB modded FRA N64 and I’m looking at getting an appropriate cable for when my OSSC arrives.

        I’m a bit confused because when I asked if they would make a SNES cable without the sync stripper retrogamingcables suggested that a GameCube cable is needed for this console (this is also what their website says, see the note at the bottom of this page: https://www.retrogamingcables.co.uk/nintendo/n64/N64-RGB-SCART-CABLE-COMPOSITE-SYNC-CSYNC).

        I have tested a gamecube cable in the past and it seemed too bright but the cheap scaler I was using didn’t work properly so I’m not 100% sure. Can anyone confirm that this console needs a SNES cable? If so, I’ll let the folks at retrogamingcables know so that they can better advise their customers in future.
