I picked vp because it was a nice 21.5 inches monitor
It is a pretty good monitor, but there is much better you can get for your money at that price point, and the extra real estate definitely helps in terms of productivity and gaming. Note OP also said minimum 22 inch.
The BenQ GL2460HM is also a good option in terms of TN panels, with the Acer G276HL following a close second, due to its 27" resolution at which 1080p appears a bit stretched.
