I have a spare pc that I am thinking about repurposing for arcade emulation. Preferably I would be using a crt, but hdmi to composite adapters seem to have a lot of issues.

Are there any good options for a GPU with actual composite output, that wouldn’t be a massive downgrade in power from my gt 710?

    You can get GPUs as new as Nvidia’s GTX 900s and AMD’s R9 300s which will be DVI-I capable (DVI-I or DVI-A are what you’re looking for, not DVI-D). You can then use a DVI to VGA to composite adapter chain for perfect, lagless CRT video output.

      Thank you, this seems like the best solution. Unfortunately, both of my spare GPUs are dvi-d, so I will still have to buy one.
