If you tower your A1200 and add a Mediator then you can use cheap 2nd hand 1MB or 2MB ViRGE cards which (In my experience) worked just as good as my Cybervision643D.

Also, if you get an Indivision AGA you can have some large screen modes or even widescreen.  The speed isn't impressive compared to RTG and you're limited to 256 colours, but it is better than nothing.

I have got a DCE Scanmagic (without flicker fixer).

Is it possible that there are any screen modes (maybe i can download them) that can offer a nice flicker free high resolution ?


I doubt it.  The Indivision is (apparently) a lot more than just a standard SDFF which is how Ratte managed to write the monitor drivers for it.
