The Shure PGA48-XLR talked about in Linus's video posted above is another good option for a mic, would want a pop filter though:
Shure PGA48-XLR

Just no. It doesn't need a pop shield it has one built into the mic guard.

So does my Shure 55SH but P's were still annoying:

Shure 55SH Series II


Threw an external pop filter on it and it was completely eliminated:

PEMOTech Pop Filter


Many people double up.

Got it on deal for $90 thought it was a good buy to use for simple commentary / voice chat... would like the SM7B at some point. I use a separate condenser mic when I want to record actual vocals.

You sound like you know your stuff, not trying to be contentious, I've just personally had bad experiences with built in filters.
