I have a very niche situation (loft bed) where the extremely flat panel of the ASUS MS238 monitor worked well for me, and after over a decade of service, one of mine has died and I've been scouring the internet all day to no avail. Does anyone know of any other flat flat flat panel backlit LED IPS monitors, preferably around 24" and using 75Hz refresh or higher (I can see 60Hz and it triggers headaches)? I'm not too picky on the rest of the details. I'm not a gamer, I mostly just watch videos, do schoolwork, and scroll Facebook on this machine. I obviously don't want to see pixels or anything awful, but don't need gaming performance (I do play a few games, but nothing that refresh rate matters on), just looking for something comparable to the monitor that died (although I'm willing to upgrade if that's what it takes - it would be awesome if I could find one with a display port). The monitor I'm trying to replace is literally about an inch thick all the way down, no bulges, and it's proving very hard to replace. I can, however, deal with bulges at the bottom of the monitor in the back, just can't be in the middle or top, and the less bulky (thinner) the better. I'm flexible on the 1080p (has to be at least that, but can be more) and can go bigger (wider and taller, I have about 30" wide and 22" tall of space) to some extent, just not much thicker. Any links you can post would be super helpful. I am so out of touch with monitors, having not even looked at any in a decade since I got these. Bummed one died on me but they are well outside the warranty period. Obviously I looked at everything ASUS offers first and they don't seem to make anything comparable anymore. I would sincerely appreciate if you know of anything that even remotely looks like it might be a suitable replacement for this monitor! The main thing it needs to be less than 1.5" thick once the stand is removed (a slightly thicker bulge at the very bottom would be ok).
