Computer monitor/screen master thread

[yakov116]

Can any one recommend a Screen mount? I need one that can be drilled (dont know the word but to make a hole and bolt  it in). it has to very durable and hold 13 pound all in one. I dont need a long arm at all.

I'm using this one on my monitor:

It was actually cheaper ($13) when I bought it. Works pretty well, including a pretty wide range of motion. My 2 (minor) issues are that when you push it back all the way against the wall it doesn't center on the spot that it attaches to the wall, and it doesn't lock the monitor into place horizontally level.

If the extending arm is of no interest to you and you just need it secured on the wall, you can try something like this:

Anyone interested in the LG ultra-wide I posted about earlier in this thread, it's on sale:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824025038

$229.99 - $30 rebate - $25 Visa Checkout promo (code: VCOBF15).

This model is actually better than the one I got, with better ports (HDMI, DVI-D, and Displayport - instead of just 2 HDMI's) and built in speakers.

Is this a good deal for 89.99

[yakov116]

You only need a wire from the computer to one screen and then one screen to the other

Did you try restarting

[yakov116]

Did you try restarting

Yup.
The second monitor does not even recognize that it is plugged in.
I am not is such big trouble I will just have to order I 5 1/2 foot VGA.

Come to thing of it I may have an extra XVGA (I think that's what it's called [the white one]) and use an adapter.

I googled it its not possible to do what I wanted.

You are probably best off using a long hdmi cable

I know but the second monitor does not take HDMI

[cozmohoot]

just got someone a 27 inch screen and an i7 desktop win10.
he now wants a touch screen for it.
they are pricey but also they dont seem to make standalone touchscreens bigger than 22 inches
should i just get him the 22 inch touch?
ideas?

What do the experts here think re the brand/specs? And what about the price? Thanks!

[txtmax4]

Any experts here?
I own these two screens at two different locations. Is there any reason why the one on the first link is giving me headaches as opposed to the one on the second link?

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236327

What's the main difference between them?
I need someone who knows how to read specs for this type of product.
Thanks!

P.S. Looking for a new monitor 23-24in, any good deals out there? Ideally, I'd want to try to avoid buying whatever is giving me a headache.

Biggest difference is the dell does not have a hdmi port and the other does

Did you see any difference in the type of display?
I.e. I'm trying to zero in on why one is causing headaches and the other isn't..
What could it be?
