Whaddup? Newbie to the forums here.
Basically, I'm looking for a monitor for gaming my PS4 (I primarily play 3rd-person action games with the occasional fighting game - no FPS), and maybe as a bigger screen for productivity and/or media consumption when I come back from school. Plug in the HDMI cable and I'm good to go. So, my preferences are:
- 60Hz only, I'm not going to need anything more than that
- 1080p only, I'm also not going to need more than that since I'm using a PS4
- IPS (any other display types are fine so long as viewing angles are good and colors are vivid, so a big fat no to TN)
- Reasonable contrast ratio (anything above 700:1 is perfectly adequate for me)
- More than 90% sRGB coverage with reasonable color calibration out of the box
- Adjustable with swift and tilt, pivot not necessary, VESA mount also not necessary
- With speakers, preferably good ones, though not a necessity since I can always use headphones or buy external ones
- Slim bezels, though not a requirement
- Less than 30ms input delay (I game on a Samsung TV, and I've never used a monitor for gaming before, so input lag is something I'm relatively used to)
- Semi-matte or matte, not glossy
With that out of the way, I don't really have a preference on display size since I've never actually never owned a monitor before - been using laptops all my life. So if anyone could recommend me a some good models, that'd really help me out. I'm not too concerned with a budget, but a reasonable bang-for-the-buck monitor is perfectly adequate. If something more premium is on the market, I don't mind spending the extra dollars.
The Asus PB238Q looks like an excellent choice, but I'm keeping my options open if there's anything better.

I tried sifting through Linus's videos for a good 1080p 60Hz IPS monitor, but nothing. Mostly 144Hz, TN, 1440P, G-Sync, Freesync, 4K - nothing basic which is useless to me since I need none of those features.
Please and thank you in advance.
