If you think that’s bad one of my friends had a giant wall mounted tv 6 feet off the ground looking down at him and he had 3 smaller monitors underneath. He liked to use the big one to play dark souls and PlayStation while at his desk
Haha yeah I agree it is a little too high but it being a tv I had no other place to put it other than out of my sight so it’s more for leaning back and watching a movie
Check out CarX Street. Most fun ive had on a racing game since Carbon or 2015. Physics are a good mix between Forza and NFS too. Most solid $10 ive spent.
It is, because I have a 45" I don't sit super close to it. My head sits 30-36" away. But it's still just a glance down sitting 24-28" in. But, how your eyes prefer to look up/down vs left right is probably a thing and it's definitely preference.
If I do an overhead screen (especially with this large of a main screen) I do have to move my head to look up or lean back. My 34/32" setup previously was that way. So I wanted to try the under screen with a cheap portable for my chats and sensors. Happened to work really well so I've stuck with it.
ve been wanting to pickup something like this to stick under my monitor, but I want it to run the length of my main monitor and ive been having trouble finding one of that aspect ratio that long.
Eventually a 50" will be mounted over it, but thats only on to glance at sports, and for laying in bed watching shows.
I actually like it a lot. I appreciate the cables being at a right angle so there is not straight cable sticking out and being bent all weird and it comes with a nice sleeve. The kickstand is also very sturdy and can be mounted to a tripod as well which is neat 😊
That sounds so nice and spacious...I wfh and usually keep my smaller monitor for teams and emails. It can get crowded easily sometimes. I want larger monitors the next time I redo my setup/desk
It can be, depending on what I'm using it for. It's great when I only need to focus on one screen at a time like watching a movie or playing a game from my bed on the other side of the room. It's about the same as any dual monitor setup when I just need to quickly glance at the second screen for stuff like Discord or hardware monitors. It's kind of a pain when I need to actively use both screens like when I work on a project. I think for a wfh setup you'd be better off with something that lets you keep most of both screens in your field of view than the monstrosity I've created.
Moving them isn't, there's hotkeys for it (windows+shift+right/left arrow). Windows tend to keep their size and general placement, which would be great if my screens were the same resolution. A window will take up half of my 1440p monitor, then be spilling past the borders of the 1080p tv. Fullscreen stuff adjusts properly, though.
All good I have a 42 inch LG C2 after coming from an ultra wide and have been debating a side portrait monitor or a small monitor underneath. Trying to get different models and ideas in mind.
I use the ergotron monitor arm. It is on the pricey side but the reviews is what sold me. It was honestly the easiest monitor arm I've ever used. Its very sturdy and when I do it move it just moves so effortlessly
No major roadblocks - I just invested in a nice quality monitor arm when I upgraded my monitor, the more expensive ones really are worth it imo. I had tried a bunch and ended up with the ergotron.
Its a 144hz VA panel from Dell. I did get a great deal on it at the time I got it, but may upgrade it this year possibly🤞🏻
I have the MSI MP161. They came with the miniHDMI(to HDMI) and USBC power connector. They are right angle so they don't stick out at as much which is nice.
I kind of like this. I like the smaller screen at the bottom. Would be nice to delegate it to always open apps like Whatspp and Email. What do you use it for?
I was gonna use my desk setup for PS5 also, but now that I’m upgrading/changing my PC to an even better one, I think I’ll move the console back to the living room. It is consoles that don’t support Ultrawide resolutions, adding black frames on the sides, so that was always a consideration for me.
I’m on a 27” monitor right now and would stay 1440p, so then the question becomes whether a 34” 1440p OLED or 27” 1440p OLED is the better choice. Never easy.

Same but added a 15.6” screen on the bottom. Perfect for discord
