Most people in the forum seem to use DCHDMI and they have to solder sth. on the board.

I found a youtube video where a guy used a Akura box.
Do i have the same result with a Akura box or what is the difference?

Well haven't used neither of them but

The sakura box should be vga so you will get all the benefits of vga, unfortunately there are some games that are not compatible with vga (about 20 or 30 games in the library, with some of them that can be forced via hacks or patches and some that will need rgb to be played or scart)

Dchdmi seems to be compatible with all the games and provide a better quality, but if you read on the web

1 you need soldering abilities or pay someone to do it for you
2 the gain in comparison to the vga box seems to be minimal
3 it costs probably double the price of a vga box (if not more)

You should consider this prior to making your decision (at least in my opinion)

Welcome to the family!

Definitely make dreampi your priority, as people have said it is a small but very friendly community online. Check out the scheduling thread to see what is going on.

What games have you got/are planning to get?

chewy, whatever you do don't let anyone convince you that "HISTORICAL MYSTERY ADVENTURE TROIA 1186 B.C." is a great dreamcast game.
