Monitor Arm Suggestions

icewizard64 · April 19, 2017

Hi,

I just moved house and my monitor stands have broken in the trip so I'm looking for arms/stands to replace them. Previously i was using the stock stands and had no problem with this but now the stand for my Philips bdm3470up/75 is wobbly on the bottom and i can't seem to get the plate back on properly and the stand for my Asus ROGpg279q won't rotate properly, i think the ribbon is stuck.

So my question is do you guys have any recommendations for desk clamp options for my 34" Philips and 27" Asus monitors? The monitors will be on different desks so i will need two of the arms/stands and i can't really be drilling holes in the desk so they have to be clamps. Also, i live in Australia which narrows down the options a bit but any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much for the help

EDIT: Found a solution, don't know how to delete this thread.

Keep it going!

I'm also looking for a pretty decent and affordable (< $100) for my 3440x1440 monitor (Dell U3415W). Something that can allow me to move it forward\backward and tilt it.

Ended up going with an Atdec systema desk clamp solution. The Atdec systema SP40B 400mm post and SA46B 460mm arm, Cost a small fortune but i paid more because it was one of the only listing i could find that would support an utrawide and i believed it was a better choice at the time (not sure if right yet as i just put it up).

The website says it takes up to 12kgs and my Philips bdm3470up/75 is supposed to be around 6.5kgs so it should have no trouble holding it but it seems to be leaning forward a bit. Not sure if that's because it's on a Linnmon table top and Alex drawers from Ikea so they're not really connected together. I put a blanket on the table in case it falls tonight. Stand seems a solid metal though and the instructions were easy enough even if i did struggle with the weight of the monitor setting it up by myself.

What do you think?
