A known example for a perfectly working monitor is the BENQ 702A. More examples can be found on the internet (see links below), but be aware, although the [https://pinoutguide.com/Video/VGAVesaDdc_pinout.shtml VGA standard should accept Csync on pin 13], some monitors expect separate v-sync and h-sync signals. In those cases, [https://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/hardware[Connecting the CPC to a VGA monitor -related/cpc2vga/msg235888/#msg235888 CPC2VGA|an adapter, that splits c-sync into h-sync and v-sync(CPC2VGA)]] would be required.
=== Converter options ===
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CnsQBGAuos The new star on the horizon.] An open source project, that combines a Raspberry Pi with some custom logic, to convert signals from home computers and home consoles to HDMI. For almost every computer there is a more or less different version of the board. You can build the RGB2HDMI yourself or buy a finished version, e.g. on sellmyretro.com . It's features are even beyond those of the OSSC and Framemeister. Its total price is somewhere between the GBS and the OSSC, depending on where you buy it. And its tiny. Its biggest disadvantage is, that you need a different version of the board per console or home computer (well - some computers share a similar signal, so e.g. for the BBC you can also use the CPC version, but e.g. an Amiga or an Amstrad Plus each need another converter version). Screen lag has not been measured yet for it, but it seems to be very low.

This DIY project by forum user gregg is based on the Raspberry Pico and (as of November 2024) the only solution that supports most (all?) CRTC tricks. Even games like Relentless that do not render properly on any of the other scan doublers are perfectly playable and absolutely smooth. Hardware and software are publicly available and the scan doubler can be built for less than €30 (€10-€30, depending on shipping costs for the parts). Assembly should be doable for anyone with average soldering skills.

The only downside would be that it only supports the Amstrad CPC, so if you own other computers (or even a Amstrad Plus or GX4000), you still need another solution.
