Thanks for the tip! Will a scandoubler work just as well as if I has a multi-sync monitor or are there any backdraws?


Yes kim there are drawbacks.
1) not all vga's like the signal being outputted. It is not 100% within VGA specification.
2) not all scandoublers are 24 bits. So if you have AGA it will not look as good as it was
3) VGA monitors are too damn sharp. Games will look but ugly imho.

However the 3rd drawback is also the reason I keep the scandoubler/Flickerfixer I have. I can use a nice 640x512 desktop and am still able to read all the text nicely.

Try the search function. There have been very informative threads on scandoublers in the past.
