Graphics Card

[X-ray]

I have been looking for a graphics card for my A4000T, so I don't have to rely on my M1438S monitor. It has developed a problem with reds, sometimes displaying them sometimes not. Thankfully its not the Miggy, 'cos I checked it with an RF modulator on my TV.

So. Here's the question...where can I get one? I ideally would like a Picasso IV, even if it is expensive, or a similar card that allows me to have one video out and not lose AGA. If you guys know of anyone selling a Picasso IV or next best thing, I want it.

By the way I saw a Lola genlock on e-bay:

That is a really good deal. I have a Lola 2000 myself and I have used it to overlay Scala titles onto video tape and I can tell you it is one of the best around. He's got it on £5 with no reserve.

Also, if anyone has a DKB zorro memory expansion board, I'm keen to get that. I believe they are quite rare now (the DKB128). The empty Zorro slots on this A4000T are looking a little sad

@ Orjan: damn! I would have bought that 3128 off you quick as a stick. If another comes up, let me know.

@ Brian: I already have an 060 with 128mb on it, but even that isn't enough for some of the models I have in Cinema 4D. I still get 'out of memory' if I have a lot of subdivisions. I just thought more would be better even though I now render on the PC mainly.

@ Hyperspeed: I'm with you on this one. I don't necessarily want the fastest graphics, just an original neat solution that in essence does away with having to have an Amiga monitor.
But I think I'm going to struggle to get a Cybervision with a scandoubler.

Thanks, Brian, I'll keep an eye out for the Fastlane. Back in 1996 I thought that 146mb was more than enough, especially for an Amiga. I suppose its analogous to my PC which has 1.5 gb of RAM today. I'll make a point of reading this post in 2014 and snigger to myself at the references to megabytes and gigabytes heh
