Hi

So I am in the process of setting up a new home office and wanted an aesthetically pleasing monitor with the least amount of or no bezel. But at the same time do not want to compromise on the quality and functionality as it will be a multipurpose monitor to do text based office work 50% of the time and the rest to watch movies and play games. Ideally need the following spec:

Size: over 32" or up to 38" for curved. (prefer flat screens thou)
Resolution: 4K
Panel: IPS or VA - non glossy panel
Refresh rate: over 75Hz
response rate: sub 6ms
Connectivity: USB-C preferably for video and charging with the standard HDMI and Displayports.

The closest I got to something like this was the LG 32UN880-B but it is out of stock every where.

Do you have any other suggestions out there as i am being a total noob in able to find something of this spec.

32" high refresh rate 4K monitors are still in paper release stage.
Viewsonic XG320U's information got leaked late last autumn and Asus (PG32UQ) and Gigabyte (FI32U) did paper announcements in CES.
Originally Viewsonic was supposed to come out in quarter 1 and other for second quarter.
But Viewsonic moved to Q3.
And late summer/fall is likely time for Asus with same AU Optronics AdobeRGB panel.
Gigabyte uses some other panel (along with Acer XB323QK) but suspect those aren't coming out much sooner.


And for gaming you'll definitely want FreeSync to use variable refresh rate.
That would help some even with 60Hz.
Though unless you're playing only slow paced games higher refresh rate would be good.
Unlike in CRTs whose refresh rate increased when lowering resolution, LCDs have fixed max refresh rate no matter the resolution.
So for lower resolution playing with scaling you'll still need monitor's refresh rate to behigh.
 
Wasn’t looking for extreme high refresh rates, I would be happy with even 75hz. Last time I was playing FPS games was in the crt days. Like I said minimum bezel/frame is the starting point. Am not in to gamer bling bling flash flash rgb either.
 
There are no choises between 60Hz and 144Hz in 4K monitors.
Even 2560x1440 has had very limited over 60Hz selection in 32" size.
