I have both the loop monitor and the trident VGA card you mentioned.
I don't know much about monitors, but the quality looks great to me.

One problem of the VGA card is that it supports 800x600 on 16 colors only.

Also, my VGA card is damaged. It will not always boot in VGA mode.
But it always boots in CGA mode.
I will return it.

BTW, it includes a driver for windows 386 on 1024x768 resolution.
