I work and play here, hence the laptop tray. Ive tried a couple of set ups already. The elgato low profile mic arm and hyperx quadcast are on the way and I want to incorporate those into a set up I’m more satisfied by. My main priority is having my main monitor be dead center, it currently being on the right hand side wasnt my greatest idea. My laptop is too high and far away. Im also using a fully brand triple monitor mount so having two 27s and a 32 is tricky. I have an additional mount previously holding the 32 but now the laptop tray. Not really sure how clean I can make it look realistically. Should I give up one of the 27s? I work with maps so having a lot of space while working is nice. Thanks for any advice!

  1. I have 3 screens too setup as follow : vertical, main, second horizontally. Leaves enough room for stuffs on my desk

    I almost had a similar setup, but ended selling the 32″ due to a couple of dead pixels. I was going to put the 32″ in the center as my main with a 27″ on portrait on each side. If that didn’t work out, I would go for a stacked setup with the 2 27″s and the 32″ to the side in portrait. I’d recommend Googling triple monitor setups to get ideas and see what you like the most.

    Stack two of the monitors and leave one vertical

    Gotta say this dude, your setup is actually fuckedup tho. My advice, and I really mean it, take everything down and think about it again with a clear look at your space

    Yo this is weird. Why not stack your two horizontal monitors then have the vertical next to that. Then have your laptop on an extendable arm on the right.

    Idk why I that the box was like ramen packages

    I am getting chills looking at the setup.

    Remove everything, clean them and get rid of extra things you rarely use, keep it minimal and simple.

  8. Main monitor to the center.. Laptop to the side of it and two 27 to the other side where one is on top of the other…

  9. Been seeing the weirdest monitor layouts lately

    For gaming that is super cursed. I have seen this in lawyers offices – it makes sense there. Main Brief on the vertical screen, emails left, lexisnexis on the right, goated setup.

    Great for work; cursed for everything else

    Hopefully these links work but you have the bones.
    Personally I would either have the two 27”s side by side on the bottom with the 32”centered on top.
    Or have the 32” centered and have the 27”s on each side in vertical mode with the top of all 3 flush in height. Don’t give up!
