I currently have Acer H223HQEbmid which is 1920x1080 resolution 21.5" screen. I've been pretty happy with it but the AG coating is really grainy (in my opinion it's much worse than in Fujitsu P24W-6 IPS for example - which has acceptable coating in my opinion) which makes whites look dirty and screen a bit dull.
However, the good this is that it does 75Hz through DVI and HDMI without skipping frames. You can also clearly distinguish all black boxes from Lagom test site and black to white gradient is completely smooth. Same goes to white saturation. Though, those dark colours aren't that accurate due to dithering and they look no where near as good as on that Fujitsu (but still).
But now to the point. I want something a bit bigger, 24" is tiny bit too large but 23" would be sweet spot (I don't want DPI to go too low). The thing is that the monitor will have to support 75Hz or better. 60Hz just doesn't feel as smooth as 75Hz any more. Viewing angles aren't that important (as long as they are not worse than in my current monitor).
I use my computer for pretty much everything (photo editing, coding, Cubase, programming, web stuff) but gaming is the main priority. I kinda need to find best compromise monitor, which should be upgrade to what I currently have.
To summarize what I need:
I'm open to suggestions, I'm not going to rush into getting one.

To summarize what I need:
- 1920x1080.
- 23"
- >=75Hz support.
- Gaming is main thing but I care about image quality.
- Super wide viewing angles aren't that important.
- Height adjustment and tilt (H223HQ stand is really poor).
