Best graphics solution for an A2000.

[mchaggis]

Hi all,

I'm refurbishing an A2000; it's a Rev6.2, 1Mb + 4Mb on 2 2091 SCSI cards.

I've purchased and configured, although not without a fair share of drama a nice new Buddha card. Supplied by Amigakit. Admittedly the drama's were all...me ;-)

So now armed with IDE, thus a huge 160GB HDD and CD-ROM. The intent is to next secure a good graphics solution. Output of 'modern' resolutions is essential, as is using an LCD monitor.

So quite simply...what is the best graphics card to go purchase for it?

Oh and I 'won' a Progressive Periferals 68040 card with 32MB on flea-bay, hasnt arrived yet, but hope to see it soon.

So what makes them superior to a "Cybervision 64/3D", which is still listed at the softhut?

OK point taken, so what about the ToastScan, again at the softhut?

Yes, I may get board of the A2000, but that will be essentially left 'classic', and i'll move onto something else.

But, I suggest you don't rely on softhut website for your upgrade plans. They don't update for ages and most of the stuff listed there are out of stock. Just FYI.

Yeah and I just discovered the "Contact Us" email bounces....

Internal scan doublers are rare; OK so the Picasso II is the good's, plus a scan doubler. thanks. Would a 2320 do, or is there better from other hardware manufaturers?

Thanks to everyone for there valuable input. You all seem to be, on the balance split between the Picasso and Cybervision camps.

It might now just come down to what I can buy.

I might start a new thread: WTB: Best graphics solution for an A2000.
