Do you game with two monitors? What's the purpose? When you play games it's either one or three monitors because you'd have the gap between the monitors in the middle of the screen if you used two. What do you use your second monitor for? I found myself mostly staring at the left one, only using the right one for the occasional background youtube video.

Since I only stared at the left one my neck started to hurt and I'm sick of it. I just moved the right one to another spot on the desk for a different purpose. Single monitor is comfy and dual monitors are a meme.

I'd much rather go ultrawide not for games but because I fell for the content creation meme but shit's expensive unless you get a small and shitty 29 inch.

Ignore the fucking vape, pic is from google.

Main monitor for gayman and second monitor for youtube/netflix/mongolian shitposting is the optimal situation

This is the best post. I'm struggling to make sense of OPs post because he's so god damn retarded.

>>385880467
>>385880706
But you should look straight at all times. Dual monitors are a meme because if you do that you'd be looking at a vertical line, so you always have to look to one.

>>385880236
>he doesn't play two different games on both screens simultaneously
What are you OP, a casual?
>>
why do i suddenly feel like i've been asked to babysit a child with ADD whose had too much fizzy pop.
>>
>>385880982
>But you should look straight at all times
So keep one monitor straight ahead of you and the other for peripherals, background noise, or music. This isn't that hard.
>>
>>385880236
i did triple monitor for awhile but it was overkill.
dual monitor is great. have a youtube/show/anime on one monitor full screen. on the other you can be browsing the net or doing whatever.
dual is also great for extra workspace and comparisons.
>>
>>385880236
one monitor in the center for vidya, second monitor to the side with discord, OBS, etc. on it

outside of vidya it's immensely useful for day to day browsing and other work
>>
>>38588098
Just make them off centered. My keyboard is directly in front off my maim monitor
>>
>>385880236
Main monitor directly in front of me for games. Side monitor for browsing stuff or references for current game. Monitor above the main one wall mounted angled down a bit for watching and streaming. Perfection

What do you do if you have a monitor stand like this one? It only fits two monitors arranged like the OP
>>
>not having the main monitor right in front of you for gaming and the second monitor to the left for discord, videos, porn, etc
>>
>>385880236

Alright, then buy a different fucking stand if you care so much. Jesus, OP, you have the problem solving skills of an autistic fourth grader

I have two monitors. Main .monitor for games and second monitor for 4chan it maps or conversations with friends or whatever I need. I also put game consoles on one monitor and use other as pc while playing.
>>
>>385882041
I have a full corner desk. I wouldnt use something like that. Stop asking dumb questions anon
>>
>>385882041

You shoot yourself because apparently you cannot solve this problem on your own.

Alternatively, if you live somewhere without easy access to firearms, stab yourself, jump off of something very tall, or drink some kind of poison.

>>385882041
I built my own stands out of k'nex.

Alternately, stack some old books.

NEET without NEETbux poor

K'nex works nicely though, they're sturdy and I was able to change the height of them when I got a new monitor.
