aries757,

 

To be totally honest, if you have a budget of $500, you can do quite a lot for a dual monitor setup. I'll put a few suggestions down below of some compatible setups you can do. I will try to find the best prices for you or have a PCPartPicker link with all of the products so you can save the most money you can. All included monitors are VESA compatible and will work for their respectable mounts as far as dimensions go. Also, if you could provide me with a spec list of your current system, I could more easily assist you with your question.

 

Dual 21:9 Ultrawide Setup (My personal favorite option for you) - $487.99 (excluding tax and shipping)

2 LG 25UM58-P 25.0" 75Hz Ultrawide Monitors

Amazing ultrawide monitors, cannot understate the happiness they have brought me over the past 2 years I have personally owned them!

Mount-It! MI-7C24

A sturdy piece of equipment that does the job it is tasked to do.

Dual 16:9 Asus Setup - $261.77 (excluding tax and shipping)

Asus VS228T-P 21.5" 60Hz Monitor

A glorious screen that has good contrast and decent image quality. It's no high detail graphic designer's monitor, but it pulls through with a very respectable pricetag.

Planar Dual Monitor Stand

Like the last one, it is a sturdy piece of metal with one job: to hold up monitors.

Hope you find these helpful. If you could provide me with your specs I can help your further.

 

Best regards and may the glorious PC master race prosper,

You could do 3x 1080p with 23'' monitors for that price, might even be able to squeeze in 2x 1440ps w/ Korean Panels.

You would be perfectly fine using either of these suggested setups above, they will run perfectly fine on a 470. To go off topic here for a second, I would recommend a 1 tb hard drive to go along with our 250 gb SSD (I'm assuming it's an SSD based on the size). You will burn through 250 gbs of SSD fast. Another note about your build, if you have the budget, I would go with a GTX 1060 instead as most modern A+ game titles (I.e. Battlefield 1, Titanfall 2, etc) will run upwards of 60-80 FPS on a 1080p monitor with ultra settings. That is if budget is permitting.

So, you seem to have around a $1000 dollar budget in total. If I may, I would like to make a suggestion to you. Try this build in the link below, its a little bit more than what you are budgeting, but I am sure you will like it, and it will show great performance in the long run. Also, I did not include the mount for the monitors in there because it would be too much for the budget, and the factory mounts that the monitors come with actually work quite well on any desk.
