I've gone through two monitors that respectively had horrible backlight bleeding and horrible IPS glow and were way too distracting to use. I'm looking for something without either of those (so nothing IPS) first and foremost, 1920x1080p resolution, 60hz, no colour degradation at different viewing angles or anything like that, nothing outright bad with response time, a pricepoint of nothing above just slightly more than $130 and the ability to turn off dynamic contrast ratio if dynamic contrast rario exists. I don't really care about size and my primary use is video games.
I've tried looking on my own and I've run into a number of problems with that. The information I've received on the pros and cons of certain specs is almost always incomplete (sites and people vehemently recommending IPS panelling over TN with no mention of IPS glow) and I've gotten conflicting information on singular monitor models (my friend with an Acer G215HV ABD reports no backlight bleeding whatsoever, but a review of one said it was quite noticeable for the user).
Can anyone suggest something? Specific models would be preferred but I'd also appreciate spec guidelines.
