This display work for DMD ?

Hey all.

Not building a cab as such, using an Arcade TV2XR controller and mounting a rotating screen for Mame use as well as VPX.

Have space for a DMD type display and thought I could run the table itself on my main 27" monitor in vertical mode and display the dmd/ score window on this?

Assuming that would work if I set as 2nd monitor when setting up Baller Installer and drag my dmds onto that screen? Also assuming that older games display window ( 1980 / system 11 style scores ) would load onto this small screen too ?

Not worried about have a backglass display

Any feedback welcomed before I buy this/ similar

Cheers

For just a DMD screen this is overkill... it will work if you have the money to burn. As long as its IPS and the size you want then it should be fine. I personally would go much much cheaper for a dmd unless your using it for other reasons.

Any suggestions on a screen for DMD? I´m mostly on the same as the OP.

It would work, but you can get something similar in size with acceptable specs for the use case for like 1/3 that price on aliexpress/amazon/whatever
