VIDEO TRANSCRIPT 📜
W Gang, I have one of those bulky hydraulic monitor arms but I wanted to do something different for this second desk setup.
That’s why I bought the vivo monitor arm desk mount for 32 dollars on Amazon. Link in the description by the way.
There’s nothing better than having desk real estate and being able to adjust your monitor to your liking.
And there’s something about a long straight pole that makes this setup aesthetically pleasing.
In this setup, you can see I did the initial install and chose to have the monitor be as flush to the wall as possible.
I still have the flexibility to tilt the monitor up and down and swing it closer to me if I choose to do so.
If you’re considering this particular vivo monitor arm, know that you have to adjust the arm on the pole in order to adjust the height.
That is a negative for some people but I knew that before I bought it and after all, it was $32 dollars.
When you take the components out of the box, VIVO gives us flexibility on how we can mount this.
More on that later.

@ykay69 Год назад

Underrated As hell keep it up man. I thought this video was sponsored by VIVO because of the in depth and perfect example of it's use. I had a few questions though, the back of my monitor has specific 4 holes on each corner shaped like a square, now this is obviously where its meant to be mounted but how can I know my monitor fits that? Also if I eventually buy a second monitor, can I purchase 2 of these monitor arms? and have a double monitor setup? Thank You

@visionarywatts Год назад

The most common patterns for VESA plate screw holes on the back of monitors is 75x75mm or 100x100mm. Search your monitor model number and look at the specs to see what is says about VESA support. You could buy two of these if you wanted significant distance in between the monitors or buy this: amzn.to/3XLO3zL

Great video. I have 2 questions. How has the tilt up and down been working for you /does it hold it's position well? And have you still not experienced any indenting on the desk? Thanks.

@visionarywatts 2 года назад

I've tilted it on a few occasions, not often. It hasn't fallen out of position on me so it's been holding well. When I posted this video is when I installed it so, so far so good. I haven't moved the clamp from it's location so as far as I can see, there isn't any indention into this Karlby IKEA desk.

@SianaGearz Год назад

Can't decide between Hama 118490 arm which is vaguely like this one, and Invision MX200 gas piston arm (53cm range). I don't know whether i'm going to be changing height a lot. But i have a giant 3 square metre window right behind my desk so unless i build some restraining mechanism, i think the Invision might hit it, and that's not a piece of glass i'm looking to replace; on the other hand, if re-adjusting height, i risk dropping the monitor on the Hama and that wouldn't be good at all, it was inexpensive but i may be unable to afford another. My monitor is a 27" standard and is only 4kg without its foot. The desk isn't built yet but some neighbour threw away some nice sturdy legs and base and i'll put a 63.5cm deep countertop on it (whatever offcut they might have, 26mm laminated beech or 38mm particle board), and i can drill into it to offset the whole monitor arm forward if i have to, it's fine. I also plan to get an old force feedback steering wheel for sim racing, and i would probably get the monitor closer and a little over when racing, so this is why i may end up adjusting the height besides bringing it in closer or further away, but i don't know yet whether i'll need that. I figure extra flexibility can't be bad, since i spend all time at computer and i tend to have neck pain, i'm no longer in my 30s.

Hey, do you know of a rotatable arm? I find myself having to frequently switch between the vertical and horizontal orientations. I keep it vertical when I'm reading through code and horizontal for pretty much everything else. So having a rotatable arm would definitely help with that. Also, love your content!

No sagging. I haven't even had to tighten it again but I probably will set a reminder to tighten all the knobs and every 4 months, just in case, because my desk goes up and down so I bet that will loosen things up over time due to the movement.
