LF help choosing a 1080p 27" budget monitor

I've unexpectedly found myself moving across the states, with the chance to ship a new monitor to the new location, but my brain's fried from all the other planning + reading too many conflicting monitor reviews. If anyone has thoughts/experiences to help narrow it down, I'd be incredibly grateful.

Also, I know some people hate this resolution and size combo, but it fits the rest of my rig, and I've been rocking my 32" 1080p college-dorm-tv-as-a-monitor for over 10 years now. You can let me see my individual crispy pixels, I promise I'm thriving.

  • $200 budget
  • 1080p
  • 27"
  • Height/tilt adjustment appreciated, but not required
  • Any stand size; stability preferred bc of pets
  • Wall mount not required
  • Mostly play sandbox builders, RPGs, etc at 60-90FPS, so don't need as much precision and speed as an FPS player
  • Doesn't need to look good in a dark room; I'll be right next to a window, slowly tanning one arm in the sunshine and turning on every light I own
  • Speaking of which, less screen glare is a plus
  • If it comes down to color inaccuracy vs ghosting/streaking, I'd rather have the color inaccuracy as the latter sets off motion sickness

Thank you for your time! \o/
