This mod is truly better done by a real pro. Especially the PAL RGB mod of a N64 is a pretty iffy. Make also sure to get a special RGB booster cable made because my N64 looked like shit rgb modded but after I also used the bosster cable it looked vibrant and astonishing! |

And I thought that the extra pieces that are soldered to the board in those instructions make the booster cable not needed. |

I saw some people who didn't need the booster cable but as I said my picture quality made a 100% leap forward when I got the additional booster cable. Afaik all rgb mods are primarly done the same way on the n64, only the spots you take the channels(R/G/B/sync/mass) from differ. |

We'll see when when I get this done. I have SNES RGB scart and NGC RGB scart some where, I'll check if either one works natively. |

Doing the RGB mod on a US system isn't really too hard at all. I've done it before. That PAL one looks tricky, with the SMD components and whatnot. I wouldn't attempt it myself. Have you ever seen the mod to do RGB on a later model US N64? It's completely insane. You're basically building a DAC from scratch to stick inside the thing. |
