This is what I said the other day about this issue. Good luck finding a decent tv with display port! Those fuckers are rare and expensive!
They are called monitors, and yeah expensive but then you don't get a "Smart TV" with tracking and bullshit.
Nor do you get TV tuners. While most geeks probably couldn’t care less, any associated family do prefer to watch Great British Bake-off as it airs.
You could get an external digital tuners and a hdmi switch to switch between pc and the TV.
My grandmother still has an ancient tv with one of those tuner boxes she bought for her tv when analog went off the air.
