A3000 VGA output questions...

@mingle
Invest in a Cybervision64 instead of an Indivision for a 3000! The CV64 has passthrou for the ECS (3000 VGA output) so you get 1 monitor output with backward compatibility plus fast 8 bit, 16 bit and 24 bit. The price should be pretty similar between a used CV64 and new Indivison. Make sure you get the CyberVision64 and NOT Cybervision64/3D or you would need a monitor switch, 2 monitors, or a dual input monitor (my favorite).

A CV64 would be nice, but the ones I've seen for sale have been around twice the price of a new Indivision AGA... But maybe it's twice the card? :-)

Not always. $120 U.S. for a CV64 right here...

Many times faster than an Indivision, more colors, and higher resolution. Yes, more than twice the card for a 3000.

apples and oranges ? indivision is a scandoubler/flicker fixer. it's not a graphics card.

You'ld still need a scandoubler to view the native screenmodes even if you had a graphics card.

The 3000(T) has a built in scandoubler with flickerfixer and the CV64 has passthrough so it's a 1 monitor solution for a 3000(T). The CV64 with a 3000 is almost as nice as a Picasso IV or Mediator setup for a fraction of the price.
