I rock this setup with two ultrawides (flat 40" on top and curved 32" on bottom) and I think it works better since kinda add up to be more like a square - you don't have to move your eyes as far. But having a deeper desk and sitting further from your monitors definitely helps too. Good vid though! Had it recommended on my homepage. Maybe record closer to your mic and/or do some post processing to get rid of the reverb in your room for extra editing points
Yeah, lots of people stack ultrawides and it makes a lot more sense. Thank you! The room I'm in is the living room with a vaulted ceiling so there's nothing I can really do. Will get a mic for my camera in the near future since right now I'm just using the built-in one.
Bro can you put the lower monitor flat to table surface 45° or 70° and top monitor as flat to wall .... I want to see this set up and also how it looks when we add 2 more monitors in the same configuration and all screens be flat and not curved the size can be 27 inch but i would like 32inch 4 screen set up ... I would love to see a photo in community post if you can do this set up
I don't think it looks that bad and I also pay a lot of attention to aesthetics. I currently use an 38 inch ultrawide in the middle and 2 27 inches stacked on the left side.
I just went with stacked few days ago. The reason so I can have more desk space and put my speakers on the sides and I can watch movies while chilling on the floor, I can put the speakers before too but it's like behind the monitor. I Also I think it's good to look up sometimes, so I don't slouch everytime and get that turtle neck.. we rarely look up guys..
Yeah, we don't look up often but that can make it more painful over time since we rarely do it. I'm not willing to take the risk of hurting my neck more.
Hi have you thought about adding an a riser to your desk set up and then mounting the stack to see if it sets it up higher and makes it more comfortable for you??? I’m 6’1 and that fixed it for me. I have a msi 49” and a msi 27” mpg oled stack on a secret lab desk once I added the desk riser it made a massive difference and comfort. Give it one more try.
Nice video, very informative. Was cosidering stacked for a while but you've thrown me off now. Gonna stick with side by side just gonna have to get a monitor arm for them now. Great content keep it up
Im planning getting a 32 inch monitor, and a LG vertical secondary monitor on the left side..im tall but i think left and right (vertical + horizontal) is the best bet as well!
For sure! Vertical as a secondary is amazing and saves so much space! I plan to (when OLED gaming monitors are not as expensive as they are) get an OLED monitor and then have a "Tie-fighter" monitor layout. (Two vertical on either side and a main horizontal in the middle)
Great video! Love that Tech Source mousepad And love that you shared your experience :D I'm kind interested in a layout like that, but I'm not convinced for the position of the main monitor
i tryed stacked layout it hurt my neck i even had a stand up desk . also i need a new mount maybe i need one like yours gass arms so i can change the position when ever i want i using a vivio vertical stand now it only stationary meaning it can only do vertical unless i get arms attachments for it witch i might
How's the stacking setup experience so far? Coz currenly im on dual side by side and im thinking on stack setup, but im concern on monitoring on the secondary monitor. as it may cause viewing discomfort over long period.
I have since switched back to side by side (which should tell you most of what you want to know), but as I stated in the video, I wouldn't recommend it for comfort.
4:20 "You can't glance when u have it side x side." Boy, what crack rock are u smoking? 😂 Anyway, after testing both configurations myself, I found the stacked orientation (even tho the most symmetric) to be the most uncomfortable for viewing. Sometimes I had to squint eyes upwards or raise my chair to see certain things clearly...VERY ANNOYING! I'll be going back to side x side monitor setup.
This video is incredible! You've clearly become a master at both video techniques and computer set-up!

This review is better than 99% of what I have seen here in YT about dual setups. Thanks 🙏
Thank you! I like to be more realistic as I am an average person unlike most RUclipsrs which get all those sponsors and stuff.

I agree with you.
Dang that's a sick setup (jealous!!)
can we see your setup?

damn this is genius gonna get me the same monitor mount, I use two separate monitor mounts

ur videos are amazing but I think it would be more amazing if u did a voice-over when ur installing

Thank you and glad I helped you realize it's not the best.
Nice!! Setup looks clean you defiantly got vision

Yeah, it really hurt my neck too. I can understand what you mean by the stationary mounts, those aren't great.
Should I try it when I have a 15.6 inch laptop and 24 inch monitor on a small desk
If you're using the laptop below and as a keyboard, then yes, try it!

Isnt it possible to get a stacked layout with that first mount?
No, that's why I had to get a new one.

Mind sharing the astronaut wallpaper?
Sure thing! The name is "Spaceship Earth" and it's on Wallpaper Engine.

I guess what I meant is it just doesn't feel the same and is unnatural lol.
Yeah, the exact same thing for me for stacked.
Good job on the videos. Keep it up!
