The original issue turned out to be a faulty power supply. While I wait for those fuses to come in figured I would replace the board caps and add the GEM.

Glad to have it. The N64Digital mod always seemed super shady insofar as they would only really make it available to a small group of installers. Seemed more of a $$ scheme than a mod that normies could get their hands on. So glad that there’s a real alternative now.
How does the deblur GEM image quality compare to, say, upscaled s-video with deblur-patched ROMs? It’s hard to tel much of a difference when watching YouTube videos.
I guess I’m pretty fortunate, I was able to preorder the N64Digital in the first wave. Yeah the fact they can have a single board for multiple consoles should keep it in stock. I don’t actually can’t compare. I went straight from using a cheap hdmi adapter to learning to solder just so I could install the N64Digital. I can say it looks amazing and super clear. And the scan lines help games like Goldeneye (really helps the menu text be legible). If I had proper capture cards I would upload raw footage somewhere.
