PIV SD/FF vs Indivision SD/FF Question
« on: February 19, 2010, 01:28:29 PM »
The SD/FF of my Picasso IV is brilliant and works flawlessly using SVGA CRT monitors but out of 3 LCD/TFT monitors i have only one of them worked when connected to it.

The Indivision claims to work will all LCD and CRT monitors. Why?

And why does most of my LCDs not work with the Picasso IV?

The only one that works for me is the 21" Widescreen LCD which i use for my main PC. I have a 15" LCD and a 17" LCD and both do not work. One says out of range and the other simply goes into powersave mode.

Why would a 150 Euro SD/FF be better than a 250 Euro full RTG Gfx card/SD/FF?

Very true the PIV is an Amazing graphics card and the RTG by far makes up for the SD/FF not being quite as good as the Indivision (Although it is very very good).

I originally wanted just a SD/FF like the Indivision, but since none of the Indivisions are compatible with the A4000T i decided to go the whole way and get the PIV which i am so glad i did, because i can see the Amiga do so much more with much more speed than i ever thought possible on an Amiga.

I also had a ScanMagic SD/FF but that wouldnt fit either.

3) Picasso IV scandoubler has similar capabilities in that it can scan rate convert too. No doubt that it is inferior to Indivision AGA but the PIV's RTG more than makes up for it.
