Not all PC monitors can handle 15hz horizontal screen refresh (too low) so you'll need a scan doubler or a monitor that can handle a low refresh such as a Benq BL702a plus a RGB to VGA adapter (check out Amibay as there is a good seller on there). Other than that the Vampire V4 comes with a HDMI out port so get one of those.

A CRT offers the benefit of no innate screen resolution which suites the classic Amiga switching from a low res classic game resolution and a higher productivity resolution. On a RTG enabled Big Box Amiga a CRT is most desireable! It's a shame my father in law didn't use a screen saver as his long Solitaire sessions have led to some screen burn on my CRT I got from him.
