Here you go! And no, it's not the three monitor arm. I just bought three of these wall mounts (one for each screen).

Great question! I got 3 articulating arm mounts and fit perfectly onto one of the arm mounts. Here’s the link:

You can get wall mounts from amazon for about $15. They're totally fine and work great.

Regarding the ledge, can you use it for bias/accent lighting?

I think a light/heather grey would be awesome with the blue. Maybe some slight yellow accents here and there.

I use two separate mounts As for how I use them, I have a ps4 so I use the top one for that and the bottom one for the pc games While I’m using the bottom one to game I use the top to browse/watch vids/productivity and when using the top to game I use the bottom for browsing/vids/productivity as well

currently using an insignia flat screen tv with some random tv mount from amazon, other screen is a samsung 23in curved monitor with this mount: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B003O1UYHG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

that mount is awesome for secondary screens because the vesa part of it rotates so you can orient it however you want.

This one here

But be careful when installing because this mount only moves left,Right plus rotates 180° but does not move up and down

would this vesa mount work for this monitor?

https://www.amazon.com/VideoSecu-ML12B-Monitor-Extension-Articulating/dp/B003O1UYHG/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1505204631&sr=8-3&keywords=vesa+mount

i'm a little confused because of how people say a 29 in ultrawide monitor would be a smaller size 16:9 monitor.

Yeah that kind of sucks. Maybe one day if I have the will to fix it I'll buy something like this and move on. Space is key!

It is mounted on one of these. I have a Rpi3 and a small speaker strapped to it as well. The cords are a little messy still, but everything is up off the table except for the mouse and keyboard.

Is this a good vesa mount? Also, my monitor the Acer GN246HL has a problem where I get artifacts on mose dark colors, and it looks staticy

Yeah, I mounted them both on the wall. I found 2 studs and measured the spacing so I could have the monitors touching w/out a gap in between. Here are the mounts I used:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003O1UYHG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Sorry not sure what you mean here...the HOTAS is always in front of me. I attached a plank of wood on the top piece where it shows the wheel is connected, and I switch out the X52 and the wheel depending on what I'm playing, I also have rudders that fit perfectly where the pedals go. I also used a monitor wall mount arm as a way to get the gear shifter lower than the wheel. I can try and provide a picture later if you are interested.

Edit - this is the monitor wall mount I was talking about. http://www.amazon.com/VideoSecu-Articulating-Monitor-Extension-ML12BCE5/dp/B003O1UYHG?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage

Hell yeah closet desks!! One of my bedrooms has a closet with two sliding doors so I measured the width of my closet and used the door as my desktop. It's been perfect. I have 3 of these for my monitors and they've held up pretty good over the last few years.

You could wall mount the monitor underneath the shelf. Save some space on your desk to better position your keyboard and laptop.

I use this on my secondary monitor and it works fine

Wall mounts.

these ones: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003O1UYHG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

QC is iffy, i have 4, one is bad. The locking mechanism for the tilt is not good on some so the tilt doesn't lock. (my right most monitor doesn't hold the tilt that great. can't argue the price though)

Thanks :)

I used 3 of these

They are a bit limiting in the fact that I can't change the height of the monitors, but I just had to measure 3 times to be sure where I wanted them to go.

I have tried 4 or 5 different options. I have finally settled on an oak board mounted to the wall and these holding the monitors: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003O1UYHG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

They aren't anything special but they do the trick well for little $$. They aren't of great quality but perfect if you don't move your monitors around often. Definitely great for the price.

I replied to another comment at the bottom of this thread, you should be able yo find them there! They are $10 mounts one for each monitor, you can swivel them around 360 degrees and everything. They're sweet. Check amazon for a monitor mount

I'm using these mounts for the Dells. The speakers are held up with a custom rigid foam mount I made to isolate vibrations. The iMac is just on the pedestal, I'm still trying to figure out a VESA style bracket for it, but all the ones I can find are for the 2010 iMac and earlier, so no luck so far.

It's this one here.. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003O1UYHG/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Display Mounts . I modified them slightly to get everything to line up right due to stud locations.

Most may remember my previous "RGB puke" battle station. Recently I've made some updates and wanted to see what you guys think. Below are the specs. Temperatures are sitting at 36C CPU and 35C GPU while idling. Playing Destiny 2 at Highest, temperatures go to about 40C for both CPU and GPU. Watercooling does work :D!

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003O1UYHG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This is the one I used. I had to tighten the crap out of the bolt that allows vertical adjustment. One I did, it held fine.

It worked exactly as designed, though I had to tighten the bolt that allows up and down rotation on the mount. I have a 49" UW and it was too heavy and sagged until I tightened that bolt.

Found them

And yes the cables are running through the wall via this product.

Yes, I use two; a wall mount for my ultrawide and a clamp mount for my side monitor.

Hi. What features are you looking for? Portrait or landscape orientation? Do you want easy docking/undocking, charging, and the ability to connect several peripheral devices? If so this open-source VESA mount might be a good option. Just get a generic $11 VESA wallmount to pair with it or one of the longer gas-charged arm designs.

If you don't need easy docking/undocking and charging, you can use a generic tablet mount suitable for a larger ipad and similar devices. My customers tend not to go for those since they often don't fit Surface exactly right.

I'm just using four of these

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003O1UYHG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_mmSozb992G2KW. Hanging them wasn't fun but it looks good now

Does this vesa mount works with the VG248QE?

All monitors are mounted on the wall with these individual mounts.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003O1UYHG?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage

x3 of course

Hi. This sounds like such a fun project to do! I also agree with the mount idea.

I've used this for my monitors before I switched to these. Both are great quality, easy to install, and deliver what they advertise.

The benefit of these articulating types is that they can also tilt, swivel, and rotate. I don't know how your vanity is set up, but tilting might be something to consider if you ever both sit and stand. The swivel might be helpful if you're trying to catch the best natural light from a particular window.

The former is definitely more affordable and a simple enough solution. It's very sturdy when mounted onto a stud, or be sure to use anchors. Also, if you plan to use this type of mount, just be aware that when it's pushed back, the center of the mirror (if you affix it to the mount at the exact center) will be offset about a couple inches to the side from where the mount is attached to the wall. I hope I explained that well enough. There should be more info on this in the reviews with photos to help explain what I mean, or feel free to ask me for more details.

The latter (or something like it) would be a great option if you didn't want to attach anything to the wall at all as it can clamp onto an edge of your vanity, if possible. This might be a good route if your vanity is floating away from a wall. This one is much more costly, though, and I would personally rather spend that money on the makeup goodies lol. I'm only mentioning this option as it's the only other mount I've had experience with and it's a great mount, but there could be similar ones out there at a lower price point with the same features by now (I bought it a couple years ago).

Safety tips: I don't know if you have plans for how to affix the mirror to the mount, or what kind of mirror you want to use, but in regards to safety (if it is a simple bare mirror) I would recommend to create/attach/build some kind of backing/frame for the back and around the edges of the mirror so that it's more sturdy when you move it around. Also, I would recommend sticking bumpers onto the parts of the mount that come into contact with the back of the mirror when the mirror is pushed back towards the mount.

I hope this was helpful. Please feel free to ask me any questions.

Another option is to mount the sticks to your desk (thread from ED forums, not my work) and put the monitor on a folding VESA mount so you don't feel like you're sitting 6' from the screen.

I'm planning on doing something like this, as I'm in need of a new desk. The mounts will be made of plywood and attached to the rail using M8 bolts so I can remove them and attach them to the shelf above the PC when not in use and the monitor will be attached to a VESA wall mount and pulled forward for HOTAS use.

Monitor mount - $12.69 vs. $80 list price

Yea. All in all, they are pretty heavy monitors.

But I've found that even the cheapest articulating VESA mounts from amazon (~$10 each) hold them just fine.

I'm talking tearing it down to this point. Though, I probably won't. Theres a lot of work that goes into making sure everything is stiff enough to work and strong enough to not break the glass.

I used these! You can turn them in a complete 360 giving you the ability to switch between portrait and landscape whenever you like!

Good job on the project, but they do make cheap mounts, although they are wall mounts I own both of these which would have been cheaper.

What about a simple articulating wall mount like this ? I used a really similar one (maybe this exact one) to mount a ~24" tv in my bedroom. Folds right up to the wall when I need it out of the way and pulls out & swings around in any direction when needed.

**Edit- And in terms of being nervous about mounting to the walls, just buy or borrow a cheap studfinder. You'll have no problem supporting a small tv with a couple of screws into a stud!
