Bvision can run upto 1600x1200 but the screen is very fuzzy

I fixed that problem by improving the insulation of the cable between the BVision and the VGA-connector.

um, and how do you improve insulation Piru? by cutting down some wires?

Much of the blur problem originates from the crosstalk of the cable.

I carefully removed the connector on one end of the cable and removed the plastic tube covering the actual cable. I insulated each wire separately by using the insulator from 10BASE2 cable I ripped open. Put back the connector and it's done.

It made 1600x1200x16 mode usable.

I don't remember any such component. Unless if it's actually in contact with the heatsink thermal paste will only lower the heat dissipation.
