Update []:
Mike Chi has just announced the RetroTINK-6X CE, a new, all-analogue-input, 1440p-class scaler which has been built around "the same advanced image processing framework as the 4K models."
Here's the full rundown of what makes this so special, taken from the official site:
-
Native 2560x1440p output designed to operate at the full 300 MHz maximum for HDMI 1.4b. Additional support for 1920x1080p120 as well as 3840x1080p60 ("quasi-4K" CRT mask mode).
-
RT4K-class 12-bit linear light pipeline supporting the latest CRT simulation effects, including true HDR10, energy conservation scanlines, spatial redistribution masks and variable MPRT black frame insertion (BFI).
-
Console-sharp profiles made by legends Wobbling Pixels, FirebrandX and the amazing Tink community, as well as the ability to cross-import RT4K profiles (like Kuro's meticulously calibrated HDR CRT model simulation profiles).
Original Story []: Mike Chi's RetroTINK line of video processing devices has become the gold standard for retro gamers who want to get the best possible image from their legacy systems, with the RetroTINK 4K offering an incredible amount of customisation when it comes to upscaling and filters.
Chi has just teased a new member of the RetroTINK family (which also includes the more affordable 5X), and he's lifting the lid on it this weekend.
Engineer Voultar – the man behind the SNES Edge Enhancer – has clearly been given early access, as he recently said this on social media:
"If you’ve been waiting for an affordable video processor that punches WAY above its class, pay attention. This isn’t a beta test. It isn’t a proof of concept. It’s a real, finished product that WORKS. The price is nuts. The feature set is even crazier."
Chi has confirmed that this isn't an "RT5X or RT5X-derived device", so what could it possibly be? Place your bets by posting a comment below.
