Not easy to find something, so far.

Sans bezel is the bonus. « Last Edit: January 05, 2016, 01:33:17 PM by Bird » Logged Phil.8 RestrictedRacing Hero Member Posts: 4158 Karma: 62 Δ8 Re: Triple Monitor Stand « Reply #3 on: January 05, 2016, 02:38:43 PM » http://www.gtomegaracing-anz.com/Accesories/Triple-Monitor-Standhttp://www.digoptions.com.au/trak-racer-triple-monitor-floor-mounting-gaming-evhttp://www.simworx.com.au/#!screen-stands/cacz « Last Edit: January 05, 2016, 02:40:23 PM by Phil.8 » Logged The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older Rolz Guest Re: Triple Monitor Stand « Reply #4 on: January 05, 2016, 04:06:02 PM » yeah almost $700 for those is crazy... This is about $350 http://sim-lab.eu/product/triple-monitor-mount-21-55/*oh shiny* but the shipping price is nuts...Spoke to the guys there and they recommend I buy the aluminium here locally, Get hinges and VESA mounts from the sim-labhttp://www.8020.com.au/ <- waiting for them to open so I can get a quote...Then just build myself.

You are probably better to go with 3 separate single monitor stands and just line them up. It is probably easier to make as well. I ended up getting a cheap IKEA corner desk with adjustable legs. I just use the original Dell monitor stands on the desk. It works really well. The corner desk is hard up against the corner walls so there is no movement.

But I could not justify the price (nor the effort to build one).

But I could not justify the price (nor the effort to build one).Very true. The IKEA desk is cheap and easy though. But i think I would go for a single 40in or bigger if I had my time over. I would love more height.

Still, I don't mind the swap. The bezel was driving me nuts, and I do need the height for work. Also, I don't think I mind the loss that much. Most of it was unseen, anyway. They say it's all peripheral vision, but I'm not completely sure if it matters too much at all.What I'd prefer though is a bit of curve in the monitor, and maybe an even narrower aspect ratio with a couple of inches extra in size. So my next one is a 42" curved 21:9 monitor. Although this one I could get into portrait mode with a good stand, and playing flipper on it could become a real treat...

I think I'd go for 3 separate monitor risers (I have a big desk with the room). All I want is to lift the whole shebang a bit. These stands are all so expensive. VR is the way of the future anyway.
