PAL Ps2 Modding Question 50/60hz??

[Escape-To-88]

Hi all,
Asked this before in someone else's thread, so though I'd make one of my own.
I wanted to pick up a PS2, purely for ICO and Shadow of the Colossus and maybe a couple more. I thought it best to go for a U.S system as I want the games to run 60hz fullscreen, I wondered if this was possible to do using a chipped PS2 machine. I know it's possible to PLAY U.S games on a modded PAL system but I thought the games would run slower and jerky?? As has happened to me before with an old chip. I wondered if new chips had resolved this problem and if anymore can assure me that US/Jap games would run well through a modded PAL machine??? Cheers

I had a modded PS2 this time last year with a fairly recent chip, and NTSC games ran in NTSC - so I don't think you have much to worry about.

This modchip you used to use must predate my own experience in modchips, as I've never personally came across a mod that did not display games at native video mode! Any mod made in the last few years will do.

Sounds good, been offered a crystal chipped machine and the fella said u can choose output options, so presuming this will fix my woes?
Cheers all

yep i've had a modded machine for ages and it plays ntsc games correct and you'll still have the options when pal games boot up to choose 50hz or 60hz

Just get yourself an RGB cable (or better) of course

dms 4 lite or pro version and ghost 2 chips are good to use as i've not used any others
