 ====== N64 RGB Amplifier (IC Based) ======
-Quality RGB output for NTSC (US/JP) Nintendo 64 is possible by building a simple video amplifier/driver based off of the NJM2267.  As a rule of thumb, only Nintendo 64 systems with serial numbers starting with NS1xxxxxxxx (US) or less than NUJ133xxxxx (JP) have the 'VDC-NUS' or 'VDC-NUS A' ICs that exposes RGB output for use in this mod.  Newer models use different ICs that cannot be tapped for RGB modification.

 ===== N64 RGB Connections =====
 RGB can be easily tapped from the underside of the N64 PCB, as indicated (C124, C125, C126)

+===== RGB Amplifier (Installed in N64) =====
-This build also contains a fourth set of components for an additional signal, though is not applicable for the N64, as composite sync is already wired to the AV output connector! :)

 ===== Notes =====
-This modification has been tested out on several XRGB-3 units and a Sony PVM-2030 with perfect results!
+This modification has been tested out on several XRGB-3 units and a Sony PVM-2030 with perfect results!  Stock SHVC-010 cables can be used with the resulting system.  Note that the 220uF electrolytic capacitors used for NTSC SNES RGB cables are not necessary for connecting the RGB output from the N64.
 However:
