My Retrotink 2x SCART just came today..... and I genuinely cannot believe how fantastic the image quality is.
I've been using it with my Model 1 Mega Drive, and it does an excellent job at line-doubling the image to look great on my 1080p monitor. I really can't recommend this device enough to people who want a good and simple solution to get their retro consoles to look good on modern displays. (Definitely research beforehand what model suits your needs best, though). It's certainly an ENORMOUS step-up from my cheapo HDMI converter that I was using before..

@Hydro Thunder Yep. RGB SCART going into HDMI out, which is then connected to my 1080p monitor.
The 5x is an amazing choice as well if you're willing to spend the money, I've heard great things about it. I'm really loving the 2x though, it might be the way to go due to the price difference.
There's also plenty of different choices for the 2X depending on your needs. I got the specific SCART version because I figured it would be more convenient for my setup. However, there's also ones like the Pro which do S Video, Component, and AV. That might be the way to go depending on your configuration or what consoles you're using it for.

@GoldLeader Yeah, I basically got mine for my Genesis. I figured it would be more convenient to source out an RGB SCART cable than try to find something like a Component cable for it. Which are also being made, but only by a couple different sources and they're much harder to find in stock.
I do definitely wanna check out the PC Engine at some point though..
