    @mikedavis4561 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    good review and video. Question regarding your monitor arm mount, I noticed it's on the far left side vs in the center. Does this mean it's possible to have two monitor arm mounts, one on each side to have a spaced out dual monitor configuration? How difficult would you say it was to get your monitor arm setup in that area vs the center where the removable panel is?

    • @GeekCulture
      @GeekCulture  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for watching. Yes you can put the mounts on either side. Can balance them out, no issues. You just want to make sure you have clearance for the cover panel to close. If you do then all good

    Hi, great review. Might purchase this for my son but a little concerned that the depth is a bit less than I was looking at as I’ve bought a Samsung Odyssey G75 32 inch which has a stand with 30cm depth. So I might put the monitor into an arm like in the video - can you let me know which arm is featured in the video and is it compatible with this monitor?

    I'm planning to buy this in about half a year. I currently have 2x 1,5M desks next to each other because I have 3 monitors and a collection of Playstations and some other stuff on it so I need the space. This seems like the type of desk I could do the same with. Do you think it's possible to do that without having a gap between them?
    I'm also wondering about the width. The website says it's 700mm but that's the entire desk. Could you tell me how much it is from the front to the gap?
    Thanks in advance!

    Make that same desk on wheels (with brake!) and with electric / motorized adjustable height, but also wider in breadth / width (in both size long and short versions!) for not sitting too close to the monitor!
    I would buy that improved table for maximal 300-400€.
    I will wait for that new wheeled (with brake), electric digital motorized, wider, metal desk (for short and long version) and its yt video!
    If you don't want to do the motorized height, then at least do the other improvements - wheels (brake) and wider space on desk. But do 3D 360° wheels, not those 2D with movement directions blocking, those suck, if you know what I mean. So more like a ball wheel! By this way, those wheels won't blocking eachother in any movement by its angle directions positions, because since its ball angle is 360° (3D)! Every furniture should get that 360° ball wheel! Cargo holds of e.g. airplanes have had something like this. Perhaps use hard rubber for the ball wheels, like a bouncy / rubber ball, so that the floor won't be scratched.
    But do yourself a favor and write my name Eugen K. in the first, highest position and with the biggest fonts before and after the video and on the product 360° 3D spherical wheel! Or it will be criminal patentright-thief by you! And then I will make a video where I offer the world-rescue with the condition to make for example the USA government to kill you! So be warned!
