Dual monitor arms vs. one big monitor, I picked the arms last Tuesday
After six months of hunching over a single 27-inch screen in my spare room, I finally pulled the trigger on a pair of cheap gas-spring arms from Amazon, around $65 total. The setup took an hour and one stripped screw, but now my two mismatched old monitors float side by side and my neck actually feels fine by 5 PM. Has anyone else ditched a big ultrawide for separate screens, or am I missing out on something?

Dude, good for you! Mismatched monitors beat any fancy ultrawide in my book. I tried a big curved screen once and returned it in a week, the curve hurt more than it helped. Separate screens just let me angle each one to where my eyes naturally go, no more constant head turning. Plus, when one monitor dies, you only replace that one instead of a $800 paperweight. Stick with what works, your neck already knows the answer.
