So my current pc is great, however i an going to upgrade to a 770 or something when the 800 series is officially out(so the 700 series is cheaper). i also am going to get a new desk, then a new 1080P 21.5" Benq. Unless you guys think i should wait for prices to drop on the 800's, because i only game on one screen, and i only play games like Gmod and minecraft. Buying in this order

 

Desk

GPU

Monitor

 

or (like this way better)

Desk

Monitor

GPU

 

Current setup

Planned

post-45248-0-95006600-1405315163_thumb.p

 

So i need a new desk to fit all this stuff (i am actually using a wooden table...)

 

it needs to be at least 28" deep, i like to have almost my whole arm up to my elbows on the desk, not like just my wrists. and length, idk like 60".

any suggestions?

Best triple monitor stand for the money http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3725046&SRCCODE=WEBGOOPA&utm_source=google&utm_medium=paid_search&utm_campaign=paid_search_google_pla&scid=scplp638653&gclid=CNal6vuIxL8CFUcV7AodfiIAQg&gclsrc=aw.ds you can get it cheaper on Amazon though.

Build your own from IKEA, it's totally worth the price premium. This is what I have planned. Look through the things. You can even get drawer-feet deals.

I completely understand were you are coming from. If you are ok with a triple monitor stand that is not precise on were you want to locate the monitors, such as pivot,and swivel, then there are some decent triple monitor stands on Newegg by Roewell, that are anywhere from $45 bucks to $65 bucks. I will advise though, you get what you pay for.

No problem. That's just what I was looking at, obviously there is other stuff for people with a different taste.

If your monitors do not have Vesa Mounts how are you going to mount them?
