Title: Good monitor for the Indivision AGA Mk3?
Post by: Nick_66 on February 05, 2024, 06:28:39 PM

Hi all,

I have an Indivision AGA MK3 flickerfixer and looking for a good decent affordable monitor to hook it up to. I am looking for one with a VGA connection and also HDMI. Preferably two HDMI inputs. This flickerfixer should be compatible with V-Sync. Is this the same as  G-Sync? I will use my A1200 mainly for gaming. I also have a A500+ with the Indivision ECS V2.

Is there a list which I can find with a list of compatible monitor for both flickerfixers? My idea is to hook the A500+ up with the VGA connection and my A1200 with the HDMI input.

Like to hear some suggestions about what kind monitor will be the best choice.

Thanks!

The best Monitor I use is a Dell U2140f. It’s 15 and 32khz capable. So good for native Amiga modes as well as Scandoubler/flicker fixer.
Has 1 HDMI, 1 VGA, 1 Display Port, 2 DVI ports. You can also add on a Speaker to the monitor. Plus has a powered USB and card reader on it.

Hi,

Okay, thanks, but does this monitor supports V-Sync? Are there other options? Can't find that specific Dell monitor on the used market in my country the Netherlands.

Just received my new A500 case from A1200.net and unfortunately the supplied ribbon cable with the VGA connector that came with the Indivision ECS V2 isn't long enough. Any idea if it would be a problem to extend the length of the ribbon cable?

Thanks for the Ebay link and monitor specs!

I really can't find if this type of monitor supports V-sync. The Indivision ECS V2 works best with a V-sync supported monitor. Not sure if this Dell monitor will be the best choice for the ECS V2?
