New monitor

GloriousPain

I need a new monitor due to an armed robbery of my home; But due to the fact I have to save up for the winter holidays, I don't have too much to spend, what's a good 1920x1080 (or higher 16:9 or 16:10 resolution I do not like 4:3, 5:4, or 21:9) I want HDMI or DisplayPort, well ports, but DVI wouldn't be too particularly terrible I just don't like the locking mechanism as I commonly have to switch cables,  obviously higher refresh rates/lower response times is better as I game quite often, Color accuracy isn't too important and I'm willing to calibrate myself, Touch screen isn't even wanted and I doubt I could get it at my budget, G Sync meh I have an AMD gpu and it only costs more money, 24" or less preferably 21.5"-ish, Vesa mounting would be nice,  oh and no microcenter  nearby... so orderable online(with too home delivery), or able to pick up at a staples, walmart, bestbuy,  kmart... for $200 USD or less preferably less,

Short hand:
$200 or less, USD-Required
No Gsync-Preferably
60Hz-Preferably
IPS-Preferably
Vesa mount 75 or 100mm-Preferably
Orderable online-Required
DP or HDMI or DVI-Required
1080p+ -REALLY REALLY Preferable
21~24"-Preferably 21.5" in particular

edit: I also plan on ordering inthe first week of november

Well HDMI or DP won't add anything to a 60Hz 1080p monitor. They will be exactly the same as DVI minus audio but this monitor doesn't have speakers anyways. 

 

This has Displayport but not worth the extra money IMO http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824260147&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

Also the first one you listed is on sale(ending today) and I don't plan on buying THIS week, or today either I plan on buying this on the 3rd or 4th of november, and my biggest gripe with DVI is I don't have any DVI cables lieing around, and dislike the locking mechanism.  but note taken...

Oh okay, yeah I understand, HDMI cables are dead cheap and easy to find now, and I don't like the screws on the DVI connector either. There's good monitors out there with HDMI but many of them don't have VESA mounts. Is this a mandatory feature for you?

nope I can live without a VESA mount.
