Dell U2410 on the Amiga

[Methanoid]

I want to buy a new Dell monitor, as my sight started to worsen since 2 years, I want to get a 27" monitor. I'm just between the Dell S2715H and the Dell U2715H.

Ultrasharp or not? The S model is almost half the price, 239€ compared to 467€. Does anyone have experience with those?

The S is a 1080p model whereas the U has a resolution of 2560x1440. Plus the S model is a glossy, and some people are reporting that it is almost like having a mirror, and they don't like it, the U is matte.

Dont think they have any composite or component so I doubt they work for an Amiga

Sure thing, ....60Hz on LCD does not hurt the eyes.

With a CRT monitor, 60Hz will seriously damage your eyes over a short time.

CRT 75Hz annoys a lot of users, including me....

& even 85Hz does not look the same as 100Hz & I'm still on about the Desktop, not being in a Game & needing MAX FPS with VSync on... Now a thing of the past almost.

RE an RGB to VGA adapter for this monitor, be sure to get a C= one for best compatibility. Apparently, most aftermarket ones are not Buffered like the original Commodore ones.
Not touting for business either, but I have a genuine C= RGB to VGA adapter here....

£10 + Shipping if anyone wants it?

Also, if this monitor does do DblPAL as Stephen states, that monitor has to be almost in "Multi-sync" Territory.
VGA is 31Khz & DblPAL is 27Khz. Back in the day, you had to have a true Multi-Sync monitor for some of the Amiga Screen modes & certainly a Flicker Fixer at worst to keep things stable. The Scan Doubling feature got rid of horizontal CRT lines so playing games from an A3KD looked as slick as you like & almost like it does on an LCD. - In some ways, it was better....

I kinda wish I'd had the pleasure of this monitors company when I had my Amiga collection a few years ago. All I ever loved was DblPAL for a desktop in the A4KD/T days but just hated the Desktop real Estate required for a 21/22" CRT. - The HEAT was almost unbearable too.

Sorry, perhaps this was in the wrong thread, I want it for use on a PC, not Amiga
