New monitor - Where should i start?

[Xafer]

Hey guys!

I'm in the market for a new monitor to upgrade from my almost 10 year old BenQ xl2420t.

The monitor will be used for light gaming, but i don't need a 144hz 1ms display anymore.

I'd rather have a monitor with a nice panel that is good for a variety of tasks.

 

I do light editing of photos and video for work and personal use.
So i would need a display capable of editing those, but no need to get a top tier professionally graded monitor.

 

I have no idea where to start looking, as i feel most displays have significant drawbacks.

Regarding size and resolution i'm not certain what would be best suited for me.
Right now i'm thinking 4K60 and 27" - But i might be better off with an ultrawide or something else?

Well if you do editing and light gaming, perhaps it woould be better to go dual screen? 1 monitor for gaming, and the other for editing?
For all i know, Samsung and Dell make good monitors with wide depth of colour. 

Ultrawide's are definitely not needed. You could always go on Elgiganten and filter things soo you have 4k 27'', and then look at whatever monitors you think look nice, and then take a look at the colour grading on them.
