Just to give you all a heads up. This monitor can display with only a VGA adaptor. In laced mode the screen does flicker, but over all the screen still looks better than on my 1084s, a LOT better.

They are cheap on Ebay. I just got a used one shipped for  just under $40 total!

bummer... I've only seen it work right on the DVI or HDMI and they were both samsung.

you could try the other frequency cores...

I flashed mine a few times. It may be risky... sometimes the flash tool fails (leaving you with no video) so you need to fall back to RGB or composite or RF and run it again.

Bummer?!? It works great! And I don't even have the Indivision AGA 1200 MK2 installed yet! :)

Oh, you mean it displays in 15HZ mode? that is indeed good. Is it batter than the Dell?

I thought you meant it worked with the Indivision only with the VGA, and not DVI (winch is common) ...

No, works like a charm, better than my Dell did in fact, but without the wide screen naturally.

This does have DVI too though so the MKII will be used with it for sure when it arrives! :)


That is a nice find. I agree the the Amiga is best on a 4:3 monitor. The Dell monitor video scaler tended to make some fonts hard to read... Indivision is much better.  There is also a 1280 x 1024 monitor driver for Indivision AGA :) That will probably look great as it is the monitors native resolution.

If the DVI works, and like  I said, I tried it on several Samsung on DVI or HDMI and it worked on all real monitors. It it did not work one one Samsung HDTV....

Mid-Laced without MKII.


I tried my Samsung S27B750V on the RGB and it did not seem to work in NTSC or PAL.
