I wanted my old VGA monitor connected to my new graphics card (R9 290). This works also first properly. I use a resolution of 1440x900 pixels and the picture is there. But I have a feeling it's not the same image quality that I have previously achieved via the direct analog output of my old card. Sometimes you can see a slight flickering. In addition, the symbols of the taskbar now appear unusually uneven in size. But that is sure to be a software problem. So if you think more, to invest the money in a new monitor, which it was so difficult!
