Sorry if this is annoying, but I'm stuck in the car and my mom needs a choice right now. I have a budget of 250$ and am looking for a nice monitor specifically from best buy. I don't do video production and only rely game at 1080p. Larger sizes are preferable along with decent build quality. I also would like to have more than one hdmi port as I have other devices. It seriously has to be specifically from best buy.

Help is definitely appreciated.

Its a pretty nice monitor. IPS panel, which is nice, but it wont really make much of a difference in gaming. I only picked the $180 ones because i thought i'd save you a bit of monies
