Alternatives of the xb270ha that does not have a glossy finish.

Thirall

I bought a brand new acer xb270ha after I bought a new pc. Although it kind of broke (think it was the connection ibsert thing inside of the screen, cause it was almost always black screen, but sometimes showed my desktop for 3 seconds max). I ended up changing it for a new one, and it works brilliant. The only problem is that the display has a glossy finish all over, and that glossy finish reflects the screen a bit. Giving the illusion that there is a black line and at the top, bottom and sides, between the end of the screen. Although I know it isn't a black line since I tested it putting my mouse close, and it reflected it, so that there looked to be 2. So I am asking for the best alternative display for this, (1080p, 144hz, g-sync) or maybe I can put something over the glossy finish? Because this reflection really annoys me. 

Thanks in advance!
