I am pondering buy a new monitor to use with an Amiga @ 15khz mode - a Benq BL912 or BL702A which from what I understand, both are compatible with the Amiga using a cheap RGB to VGA adapter. I have a few questions maybe someone can clear a few things for me. Thanks!

- Do these monitors let you force the picture to display 4:3 with borders, rather than a 5:4 (which would be slightly stretched)
- How good is the picture quality/scrolling for normal games? (I am not interested in funky Workbench screenmodes)
- Which of these two is better for Amiga use (other than the obvious fact that one of them is larger)
- Do these monitors support 50hz using DVI @30khz to get perfect scrolling with an Indivision MK2?

Thanks =)
