Thank you everyone for your kind comments!!

EDIT: There seems to be a lot of concern for my eyes. But don’t worry! The pink/ purple LED lights are not on all the time. Plus the lamp on the side provides different warm light/blue light/ white light etc.

34" for UW and 27" for the vertical one. The desk mount is no-brand, but similiar to amazonbasics https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Single-Monitor-Stand-Adjustable/dp/B07DHK5DHN

monitor arm

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07DHK5DHN?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_image The arm I'm running with my cu34g2x... Definitely worth it... I think the stock stand is a bit "in your face"

It's some 40$ Polish generic, but this Amazon Basics one looks very similar. Mine has two desk mounting bolts, not one.

Get yourself one of those : Monitor stand

​

Easily win around 7-8 cm in depth. Best 30$ spend the last month.

I use this Mount and it’s pretty good. The only issue is that my 29” monitor is too heavy I guess and the monitor tilts down on its own. So I had to tighten the screw so I’m not able to tilt the monitor now

It will feel uncomfortable if you increase screen size but keep monitor in the same distant from your eyes. So if you have limited desk space but got some free gap behind the desk then I'd recommend some monitor arm like this one so you could move your monitor a bit further. You also get some desk space back too!

I actually have individual arms for each monitor. They’re all clamp style from Amazon.

https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Single-Monitor-Stand-Adjustable/dp/B07DHK5DHN I probably wouldn't go much heavier than the MP monitor. Height isn't an issue at all for mine, but I did have to tighten it real well for the tilt. But it holds.

this is what I have right now, it's decent but I 100% wouldn't recommend it for anything larger than a 24", MAYBE 27" monitor. My monitor is much too heavy and overpowers final joint that adjusts the monitor tilt, so I had to CA glue the final tilt adjustment joint in place and it works for now.

[Amazon Basics] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DHK5DHN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) found it to be more sturdy than the vivo competitor with a nice cable passthrough for the clean look. had to tighten every little screw on it though to compensate for the heavier monitor.

I'd say it's fine, although you'd probably want some way of mounting it so it's not just balancing on the edge (and easy to knock over and break).

You could get something like this

Or this

Should be fine as long as you don’t accidentally slam yourself into your desk and it knocks it down. If you want you can buy something my a vesa mount ( https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Single-Monitor-Stand-Adjustable/dp/B07DHK5DHN/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_sspa?dchild=1&keywords=vesa+mount&qid=1586933538&sprefix=vesa+mount&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUExSlVCNVFRRzFLWktRJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNjYxMzA4M1U3MkQySlRBVFlDQiZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwMjQxOTk1N0dGTVZMWEpGRzY1JndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfcGhvbmVfc2VhcmNoX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU= )

This allows eliminates the stand and it gets mounted up and clipped on your desk.

Amazon Basics Monitor Stand Cost: $26

Laptop Mount Tray Cost $18

Pretty affordable mount setup that does the job. Also sorry for late reply.

Sorry for the delay. I thought I replied but it must not have saved. If you look at the mounts that I used the connections with the monitors are very small so you can move that connector up, down, left, and right but not out towards you.

At one time I was using the following single mounts that worked great as well and these let you move the monitor closer in and out but because I change the way I wanted my monitors mounted I found the dual mount that meets my needs. Good luck.

One of these previous discussions might be helpful

https://hardforum.com/threads/issue-desk-clamp-for-thick-desk.1851595/

Essentially:

> Well, you could try using a model like this basic one https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Single-Monitor-Stand-Adjustable/dp/B07DHK5DHN/ref=pd_rhf_ee_p_img_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=M11YWCYXHGN76CVWZG2P that looks like the lower (silver) bracket can be unscrewed. You could then buy a flat metal piece with holes to extend the vertical part of the clamp and screw the original bracket back in. Be careful though, you should make sure the modified clamp is strong enough to hold the monitor securely. > From what I have seen during my quick search, most monitor arms only have clamps that allow for a desk thickness of upto 4 inches, but there might still be models that fit your desk right out of the box (which would be preferable to the modding solution).

Many monitors have the option to remove the stand it comes with, and have four holes in the back. These holes are meant to comply with the VESA standard which would let you bolt your monitor onto a compatible desk mount (your local stores may have suitable stands you can use, linked to that one purely for illustrative purposes).

If you aren't sure if your monitor is VESA compatible or not, Google its model number and it should tell you.

I think it's this [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DHK5DHN/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fab_-daBFb7NMHB27]()

So, I have 3x 27" displays. Each weighs 10-12 pounds.

For my middle screen, I have: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071FX6H53/

For my side screens: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DHK5DHN/

I was apprehensive about getting the amazon basic one, but after receiving it and assembling it, im pretty happy with it.

I was originally looking for a triple mount, but given how much screen I have, I couldnt find one that will adequately handle things without taking up a ton of my desk, and/or wouldnt break.

Setup for the 3 of them was quite easy in all honesty.

Get a monitor arm so you can have the correct FOV

$26 12" reach

$30 26" reach

AmazonBasics Single monitor stand. https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Single-Monitor-Stand-Adjustable/dp/B07DHK5DH

I will probably return it, even with max tightness the monitor droops down a bit, it's on a standing desk. The joints quality isn't great either. Might get the Ergotron one.

monitor arm 2

something like this

Updating...I ended up buying two separate arms. I feel it is more convenient. Can move each independently and less expensive.

Edit: Linking ain't working.

Sure! The monitor arm is AmazonBasics, it has a cable feed along the arm, and the vertical pipe is hollow with entry at the top and exit at the desk level. I have this cable tray set (2-pack but also comes in singles, and other colors) mounted underneath, as well as this surge protector.

Here’s a pic of the underside a little less glamorous, haha.

This is a good question, but it's pretty personal. If it was me starting fresh and I had the computer and keyboard set, I'd go with something like:

Item | Price ---|--- Ultra Widescreen Monitor | $400 Monitor Arm | $30 Speakers | $150 Nice Mouse | $100 DAC | $70 Headphones | $70

And the rest for the necessary cables and overall accessories - skewing whatever is more important/less important to you. These are just some mid level of everything that are generally respected for the prices.
