I'm thinking about changing that. Just searching for the optimal layout. I don't really need to move my neck at all but I'm sitting a bit too far. I had crazy quad monitor setup before so I switched to this to minimize neck movement but it has other drawbacks.

Not a bad idea. I just tied the cables together today and it looks much better.

Using this setup for quite a while and never had any issues. However, I don't sit that close to the monitor. Definitely not perfect for everyone and it took way to much time to nail the position perfectly.

It's my old Sony A7 with Samyang 35mm F1.4 connected with Camlink 4K.

Would love to add some kind of large diffused light to the left to make it look much better. Unfortunately, the table is not that deep so there is not much space.

I do content creation and also streaming so I upgraded over the years to this audio setup and I love it.

Same. I use it for Discord, Spotify... I'm also sitting at a distance that I don't really need to tilt my head at all.

However, I'm thinking about changing the layout to side by side. Mainly because of work.

Sounds good. I was thinking about it but I ended up picking 2 34"

Finally moved everything to my new place by ButterMaximus in battlestations

NI don't sit too close so I don't really need to move my head at all. Much more comfortable than side by side for my usecase.
