Best Desk Size for Dual Monitors

newgeneral10

I'm looking at upgrading my desk so I can use dual monitors comfortably, and have my pc on the desk, and have two bookshelf speakers on the desk.  The two main options I have seen are the 78" and 58" Linnmon desk from Ikea.  I obviously don't want to feel cramped but the 78" desk sounds massive.  I would like to know y'all's opinion or if you have a better option for around the same price point.

That's really helpful, thank you!  How big are your monitors?

P.S. I have that exact mousepad and I love it!

I reckon the 58" one should do the job with 2 27" monitors, but it won't leave much space. If you can fit the 78" in I'd go with that.

Then I'll just go with the 78".  Thank you

I use a door as my desk and that is 76" which tbh isnt that much. I think you should go with the 78" as you will have plenty of space but for me it isn't enough at all

I have a 65in desk and I wish I had more space.

For reference, I have 2 Dell u2412m monitors on a vivo mount.

Left monitor is portrait, right is landscape. Once you add in all the other "stuff", some days I feel cluttered.
