How would you set this up?

SnipingBow

Hey,

Picture : http://prntscr.com/ffiwrg

 

The monitor in the middle is a 27'' : https://www.amazon.ca/BenQ-GW2765HT-27-Inch-LED-Lit-Monitors/dp/B00KYCSRSG/ref=pd_sbs_147_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=0Z83BDCRVFBX9TK15WQ1&tag=linustechti06-20

The one on the left is a 22'' one.

 

I don't like this setup. Basicly I took the stand of the 27'' screen and used it on the 22'' one and mounted the 27'' one on the wall. Problem is the 22'' is kind of far away and it hurts my head when I turn to look at it. I am wondering if I should lower the 27'' and wall mount the 22'' above it. Tried to see if there is wood (in the wall) to wall mount the 22'' on the left but there is none, so I am stuck with the stand for now.

 

What would you do? Curious to see the replies.

 

Thanks

Do you want a 2x1 or 1x2 setup? 

 

long x tall, by the way.

I would buy the exact same monitors again and do the following:

 

# Place the new 27" under the old one leaned back with something holding on the desk.

# Raise up the old 27" (if needed, use an Silverstones NUC extension bracket)

# Place the new 22" to the right.

 

On the other hand, I do have 6 monitors myself so I might be slightly insane....

 

Edit:

 

Oh, you only want two monitors?

I'd go with @Orangeator's suggestion or something similar. Or you could get a triple arm for the future.

Lol this would be awesome. But I dont plan on buying any new monitor. I intend to keep only 2. I know it's weird but I dont need more.
