I found this screen today.
An Asus VS248, version VS248H.
Manufactured June 2013.
I have a 6128 plugged directly into it.
It is stretched though and there is no 4:3 mode available

;D

Nice finding, thanks! Did you use only a simple RGB-to-VGA-Cable?

Yes I used a din to 15 pin VGA adapter I made, that's all.
I hate soldering video cables to din plugs, they are never easy.

That's very neat and simple, but pity about the stretching...

Normaly I use an arcade video converter although I do have a scart monitor and another small 15 hz lcd
I have to make a scart cable up one day.
But even stretched its so clear and crisp.
I don't really notice the stretching when using it, all 24" :P
I remember my 644 colour monitor back in '85 and wishing it could be as clear as EGA monitors were then.
They are really bad for the eyes, all pixelated......

Some more lists, but they are all hard to find

There's also the BENQ BL702A that supports 15khz and it's still available.

I had been using the GBS8200 with my Dell Monitor U2412M and the white speckles were a bit annoying.
Anyway I thought, why not plug the cable in direct and see what happens, and it works perfectly, pics attached.
With respect to the GBS8200 there is a copper tape fix, and I just tried that and no more speckles. I got the idea
from here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2Hd0KO28FU
The colour is a lot better than the photo's show.

@imperious (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1527) thanks for posting that video. Most helpful, as I have a GBS-8200 that has really annoying sparkles. I shall have to get some copper tape and give it a try.

I used the 20mm wide tape, there's plenty of sellers on Ebay.
