Want to use dual monitors but don't have enough desk space? I found a great monitor arm for you

After upgrading to a 27 inch 4K monitor, I found that my desk was a little cramped and I couldn't fit another monitor on it. Someone in a recent livestream suggested a "monitor arm", and I am now using one I consider to be excellent.


It can be moved up and down on that big pole, which can be very useful to have things underneath.

It's the VonHaus Single Arm LCD LED Monitor Desk Mount Bracket for 13"-27". For the price (£14.99) I was a little uneasy but, wow, the build quality is fantastic.

The assembly is extremely simple even though the instructions aren't amazingly clear - even I found it easy to put together. The attention to detail on this bit of kit has impressed me; it has a handy clip on the main support pole to slot cables in to keep things tidy, for example. It also has two handy slots to stick the Allen Keys/Hex Keys in so you don't lose them. Little things like that make me really satisfied with the purchase.

Honestly, I am so happy with the amount of freedom that a monitor arm gives you that I am considering one for my main monitor now so I have more leeway in adjusting its position. I've never seen a monitor stand that has the functions the monitor arm linked above has.


It's incredibly sturdy too; the clamp feels good against my wooden desk and it feels like a really good fit. I was a bit worried about how well it would hold onto my desk, but it's close to perfection.

Pretty surprising what you can find for cheap. So, if you want another monitor but don't think you can fit one, think again. It has changed the way I think about my desk, and I love it.

Ps. Don't go buying that Asus 4K PB287Q monitor that I have, as the loud and obnoxious "radiation alarm" is still an issue. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.
