I'm looking for a Monitor for my MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013), I don't want waste money in a LG 4K that possible don't get any advantage due my Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB, so any normal IPS?

I don't care about gaming, I need it for web design.

I'll possibly buy the future macbookpro with the "apple" chip, I'm waiting for but my 2013 still running well.

I used to use a Dell P2415Q with my late 2013 15" MBP, but mine had the Nvidia 750M GPU. 4K performance was poor, and I don't believe the 15" late 2013 with iris pro can even run a 4K display at 60 Hz.

I now use one of these: https://www.amazon.com/Dell-S2719DM...l+S2719DC&qid=1612365674&s=electronics&sr=1-2 side by side with my iMac Pro. It's bright, has good color & uniformity, and so far don't have any black screen or other wakeup issues.
