Have new A1200 today

[irishmike]

Hello All:

Well I did make the trade for my A3000 for this A1200 with Blizzard card inside of it.  ALso the fellow gave me a higher powered modified Power Supply with it.

I am now left with getting it to work with my SVGA monitor and decided I would like to go the video card route instead of the flicker fixer/adapter that sells at Amigakit.com for around $157 USD.

The question I have is, if I should find a video card (and which one I need) or find a Commodore Monitor that will just hook up?

Opinions are great on this!  Also, if you have one of these, I am interested!!!

Thanks,

Mike

Do you know of one for sale?

@everyone

If you have one you'd sell in excellent working order, please pmail me the details :-)

Thank-you Captain Obvious. :-)  Yes I had a good video card in my A3000, but decided to trade to enable me to get the keyboard and mouse (keyboard is built into the A1200) and lets not forget that this one has the Blizzard card so it has a faster processor and I can update the RAM using 72 pin SIMMs now.  This (in my mind) makes up for the lack of built in SVGA adapter.

@everyone

I am still interested in finding a video card or Commodore monitor for this unit if you have one to sell ;-)  PMAIL me your information if you have one.

Sometimes I think it is a shame that I live in the US ;-)  Yeah, I would prefer local pickup for the Kansas City Metropolitan area for a monitor myself... heck I'd drive up to  100 miles to pick up a monitor for the cost of shipping.

I saw this adapter and wondered what modes other than these are there?


  DBLPal
  DBLNTSC
  Euro 36Hz and 72Hz
  Multiscan/Productivity
  Super72
  VGA Only

link to the adapter at Amigakit.  Would flicker be a problem with this adapter?  Has anyone used it?
