I'm looking into getting two new, thin-bezel 1080p IPS monitors to revamp my dual monitor setup. I don't want to spend over $200 (CAD). 60Hz is fine for me. Got any suggestions?

 

EDIT: I'd prefer a matte screen, too

Yeah, $200 per screen. I should've also mentioned that I prefer to have a matte display over glossy. My room is very bright and glare is a pain in the ass.

I totally understand. Gloss is hard to deal with even in the dark, as the light from the screen lights up your face. 

Do you want an IPS screen? If not than there are great options from ASUS like this one with a thin bezel that I know of.

I'd have to do some looking to find IPS ones, I can't think of any off the top of my head.

over budget though.

Yeah I think for 60Hz, there really isn't any reason to not get IPS. The second link you sent me seems to be broken :/

It's $20 over my budget, but I'll definitely consider it. There's also the AOC i2367Fh but I don't know how reputable AOC is.

From what I've seen in stores, AOC's panels look terrible (take this with a grain of salt btw). Idk they always seem to either be undersaturated or just look very dull and under contrast.

Yeah, I've read similar reviews online. I'll stick to the big brands. Do you have any suggestions?

Nah sorry. I would've recommended the Acer H236HL (using it right now), but you don't like glossy screens. You could go for a Dell U2414H, but it's out of your budget.

Yah, that's my go to for matte think bezel. I plan to get a pair of those myself at some point, or that AOC 21:9 1440p screen with the LG panel

Yeah I don't think I can stretch my budget that far at over $350 for the Dell one. Oh well, I'll keep looking. Thanks :)
