- depending on the GPU generation, a VGA connector doesn't mean a real analog output. The Xorg link above states several times _VGA and LVDS are implemented via DP bridge chips_. These DP2VGA bridges can't all modeswitch fast, nor support interlaced. The luck we've had so far is that the ASRock Deskmini A300 has the best DP2VGA DAC - depending on the GPU generation, a VGA connector doesn't mean a real analog output.

Trying to give a better list of supported GPU which are worth mentionning. No RX xxx GPU has been tested, and anyway falls in recent amdgpu driver. This list gives an idea of what may or may not work, with or without hacks/tweaks.
