any recommended video converters to DVI?

i want to hook up my amiga to a modern monitor but i need to share it with my main computer for lack of space so i thought i could connect a kvm to it and then have a converter but i always saw amiga to vga converters but not to dvi, anyone using something like that??

I use one of these

with an RGBToHDMI on my A1000. Added a rectangular hole in the rear panel above the normal video port to create a new DVI port.

Looks factory.

there are a lot of solutions out there but the best solution depends on what model Amiga you have. For A500/600/1000/2000/3000 /CDTV there are RGB2 HDMI solutions that give you super sharp image through HDMI.
1200 and 4000 a bunch of other options.
Then theres the option of buying a monitor that handles 15kHZ the you could have any Amiga + PC on the same monitor
