... I recommend purchasing a modern flat panel LED monitor from either Samsung or LG; make sure that it supports both 720p60 and 1080p60.
One of my favorite monitors is the LG 1920x1080 LED 24mp57HQ ; hdmi works great with the pine boards and is sharp and clear.
Hi MarkHaysHarris777,
Thanks for the monitor suggestion, I better start saving, but if I had some extra cash right now, I would have bought a more expensive computer for starters, sort of defeats the purpose of why I purchased it.
Does the LCD display struggle with this issue as well? I ask because I don't have money right now for a new monitor, but I could afford the display with the playbox enclosure. Howecer, it's a shame I can already tell by the photo, that the enclosure is low quality Chinese made and doesn't fit correctly, otherwise there wouldn't be that open space, especially when one is looking for an enclosure. I hope technology like this gets built in America instead of feeding the Chinese.

Sorry to bother you again MarkHaysHarris777,
So like many Pine64 noobs out there, I can't seem to make my Pine64 work, probably the only gadget I've ever bought that I can't even get successfully troubleshoot, so anyway, is there a particular Linux OS image, preferably Ubuntu, that can run with a VGA to HDMI adapter? I mean obviously if Pine sells such VGA to HDMI adapter, it should be able to work, right? But since I happen to have a regular VGA to HDMI adapter, which works perfectly with any other single board computer I've purchased so far, if I were to buy the oficial Pine64 VGA to HDMI adapter, would I be able to have an output signal on my VGA monitor? Perhaps due to a better chipset or component?
Please let me know, to decide if I should get it or not, thanks Master Pine!
