| Hello all!
I just wonder which monitor model is the newest that can handle most of the Amiga 1200 built in screen modes, it does not matter if it is a CRT or a flat panel, but a multisync monitor?

I suggest you install an Indivision AGA MK3, as I did. Yes, it's an additional expense, but after that, you won't have to worry about the choice of a monitor. Take the next one you get.

I would say the Dell U2410. It's still listed on Dells website. Some turn up on eBay. It has a video input so likely why it can accept 15 kHz over VGA. No speakers but plug in sound bar is optional. The only question is how well the lace and super modes look. |

The Dell SE2722H is a fairly new LCD monitor that scans down to 15 KHz. through its VGA port. It also has HDMI (but the monitor has no built-in speakers so if you are going HDMI, you have to buy a HDMI cable with an audio out). It works very well for me!
An inexpensive monitor,

Claude finally demoed native RGB screen modes being displayed via the PiStorm32's camera port this week! Very impressive that we can ditch 15KHz supporting TVs/Monitors and just use HDMI in the future! There's also a converter for the A500 that AmigaKit sells but it's not compatible with the PiStorm Rev B!

| GREAT INFO !!
I wanted a new monitor (flat) for my 1st Amiga 500, but I don't find in white .
I don't need a new one per se , a 2nd hand EIZO for example would be a perfect choice.
Any suggestions ?

The Dell SE2722H is a fairly new LCD monitor that scans down to 15 KHz. through its VGA port
Thank you, ordered one and its now here :) works very well in DoublePAL (and normal PAL modes).
After a bit of playing around I am getting better picture quality after removing the VGA Only monitor driver from DEVS:Monitors, there is no scaling visible and text is much sharper. There are still small borders on the left and right, and slightly less pixels vertically without the VGAOnly driver but the picture is sharp and the vertical banding on dark colours is reduced.
Going from a 15 inch CRT to a 27 inch wide screen is a bit of a step up, surprisingly I have ended up with more space :)

Hey, could you post some photos how Workbench and some games look on the monitor? I want to avoid pixel stretching/distortion and I don't mind having black gaps left/right and/or top/bottom in order to preserve the correct aspect ratio, thanks! :) _________________

Good point. I'd be wary of how these wide-screen monitors handle 4:3 ratio screen modes. _________________
