They're great, but you'll only be able to use DBLpal / DBLntsc screenmodes which are a bit slow, and frequently not available to certain apps. Also IIRC you won't be able to see the early startup menu.  It's well worth the extra to get a scandoubler / flicker fixer.

If you are using a VGA adapter now (using DBLPAL/NTSC) the box you see (doubles the scan = Scandoubler) will be a vast improvement and you will have no more need for those dodgy DBL screenmodes.
