I'm looking on upgrading my setup, and my plan is to buy two new HDMI monitors and a dual arm stand for them. Currently i'm thinking on getting these:

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Dual-Arm...51228?hash=item2a713b7ffc:g:wmYAAOSwTA9X4iBf\

My budget is around $350-540.

Please link me to other monitors/stands that you think are better and why, and if you happen to have one of the products linked above, can you tell me if they're good or not.

A stand isn't really necessary unless you have plenty of space and are really hellbent on having -that- much more of a clean looking setup. the arm takes up hella room and can kind of be a pain to align. I have triple monitors with no arm and they look fine.

If you decide to go with an arm mount, make sure your monitors have detachable stands :tup: Some don't.

The stand I linked actually frees up alot of space under the monitors. I understand it's not something I need, But it does make a setup look a lot more professional and cleaner.

Yeah it does add a good look, just make sure you're comfortable having all monitors at a 90 degree angle (I personally like mine tilted back a bit which is why I don't use a mount anymore)

I'll probably just get monitors for now and if I feel the urge I'll buy a stand later on. Thanks for the help!

What will you be using these monitors for? The one you have there seems a bit expensive and doesn't look aesthetically pleasing. It also has pretty large bezels for a multiple monitor setup

One for PC, one for PS4

Get BenQ 24 inch monitors

From a quick search, this monitor is $200+. Even though I could afford these I want to keep some money left over

I wasn't starting beef, I was just pointing something out. If you have the PC power to push 144+ frames, then get the Asus monitor the user recommended, I'm using it right now actually, and its great. If you are using a monitor for console, get a 60-120hz (which ever is cheaper) monitor any size you want, preferably low response time.

Well, I want one for my PC and one for console, but I want them to be the same. Anyways, thanks for the help.

Since he is playing a shit console the 144hz does him no good.

EDIT:

Depends if his PC is good enough to push the frames for 144hz though.
didnt see the console part, just throw the console out rofl
