Does a good <= 25" 1440p 60Hz IPS monitor exist?

Been looking for one to do some programming and gaming on, but the ones I do find are either unavailable, having high input lag, or are just generally unreviewed. Does anyone have some suggestions? 

 

So far I've found the ASUS PB258Q, the BenQ PD2500Q, the Dell U2515H (can't find it anywhere in Canada), the Dell U2518D (well-documented stuttering issues), and the Samsung S24H850. I can't land on a concrete answer.

 

I am aware that Dell has a new 25" 1440p monitor coming, and it does look interesting. Still, hopefully it'll get proper reviewed.

Add in IPS and 60Hz, and the list shortens considerably. I've been looking at PCPartPicker for a while. The ones hat appear decent AND have decent reviews are all the ones I've listed.

You won't really find what you want easily because it's a niche very few people is interested on... the main brands will focus doing monitors that sell the most and usually 1440p IPS displays are reserved for 27 inches and above.

 

That's the issue in going against the mainstream, you have less alternatives... I'd consider either going 1080p at 24inch which is *fine* or then like mentioned 27inches at 1440p.

The 24" 1080p I have now is the reason for me wanting to upgrade. It just looks damn ugly, and the PPI increase from 27" 1440p just isn't all that large.
