    I realize that this is a video that is getting close to 2 years old. That being said...... This video is REALLY FREAKING GOOD! If you really are new at this, you're a natural. I'm on the hunt for monitor arms for pretty much the same reason. I just picked up 2 of the 28 inch MSI 4K 144hz monitors and I'm wanting to clear as much space as I can so it can be used functionally. I am all about "ballin' on a budget" when it comes to accessories. My search even goes as far as "best budget monitor arms" when looking for suggestions and reviews. Thanks for the time and effort you put into this video!

I don't even have monitors and I want to purchase them just in case I decide to get a PC.

      @@ryanthelin6867 Sorry that it took so long to reply Ryan. Short answer? Yes it works.
      Long answer, I had to buy a new one (first was used and was missing the Vasa mount plate) I took parts from both of them and returned the first one (with one less missing part because their was another piece missing that I actually had more of from the new one) I also bought a ten dollar vesa mount plate but it was too thick. I am keeping it for now as the mount screws were way better then the ones that came with either kit. I am actually going to be using the arm on a smaller lighter monitor because I found a real cool shelf that puts the 32in monitor exactly where I want it.
      I hope this helps friend!
