ok, ok… I was just making sure you knew what the options were 🙂
To upgrade, at a minimum, you need a monitor capable of 31.5 Khz (VGA)
connected to something like ICD's FFV (flicker free video). Then you would
have one monitor using your RGB port at 15.75Khz (standard interlaced
Amiga output) and another using the output from the FFV (deinterlaced).
You should also consider upgrading your AGNUS so that you can address 1
meg of CHIP ram, (the AGNUS does not add any memory to your system, only
changes how much of your memory can be used as 'CHIP' ram) and/or getting
the full ECS (Enhanced Chip Set) to allow you to use all of the Amiga
video modes (except the AGA modes).
The FFV itself doesn't use any memory (as far as I know), it only
deinterlaces the Amiga video signal and sends it out at 31.5Khz.
