If I have a PS2 slim SCPH-90006 which is NTSC-J 50 Hz from Hong Kong and use MechaPwn to turn it into a DTL-H90001, would it make it run North American (NTSC) PS1/PS2 games at 60 Hz? Correct aspect ratio too? Or is PS1VModeNeg required for that?
Hi @NSC-Modz ,
Thank you for your help, good advises and kinds words. :smug:

Always 2 ohm between + and - lines...
NEC/Tokin from CPU/GPU side left untouched.
No high gauge wire to bridge positive to positive.
Not as clean as NSC but it was done as carefully as possible.
But I...
Thanks for the reply and your observations.
These tantalums are legit from AVX - Solid SMD 6.3V 470uF 20% (purchased at Mouser)
I've just removed them and put it back more precisely like advised (after checking all caps). All connected.
Is it normal to have 2 ohm when I check the connections...
First of all I'd like to thank @Naked_Snake1995 for this surprising tuto and everyone here for helping "strangers from the same Family": PS3 Lovers.
As you can see on my pic, all NEC/Tokin capacitors from that side were replaced by tantalums. Verified they were connected. All NEC/Tokin from...
