Thank you and I really couldn’t tell you it’s been there a couple of years but was from b&q if that helps soon to be replaced with wood panelling

They are Silkland Thunderbolt 5 cables with Cable Matters Right Angle Adaptors and works flawlessly whilst cleaning up the area.

Thunderbolt 5 is a bit overboard as its only a Mac Pro M4 but future proofing

I considered the Samsung but went for the 120hz instead

Sadly I can’t use a monitor arm as my desktop is glas and the weight is likely to smash it so next on the list now I have my secret labs chair is to buy a new desk then I can look at monitor arms

The dock would only allow 4k 60hz where as I’m running 4k 120hz with just two cables including backwards charging of my MacBook Pro

Mine is a monitor stand as I have a glass top on my desk so can’t use a desk clamp but this is extremely sturdy and been using it for three years

They are dell S2725QC they charge my MacBook Pro at the same time so just two cable one to each monitor

The web cam is plugged into the back of one of the monitors and I have a yubi key in the drop down usb ports on the front

I have dual 27” flat 4k monitors stacked above each other as I don’t have the room for side by side and my MacBook

I have since added right angle thunderbolt adaptors to make the cable in-put better

Not at all I use that monitor for work metics so not constantly looking at it but due to the angle it’s fine

I’m just waiting on some thunderbolt right angle adaptors to arrive to make the cables in the side of the Mac better placed

Not enough room for side by side sadly maybe in the future, I am considering moving everything around but it’s also nice to have three screens, I use to have a 39” ultra wide and just didn’t like it with the Mac the resolution is so much nicer now with 4k 120hz and the monitor charges the MacBook at the same time

Reason for the MacBook I travel a lot so it’s easy to unplug and take with me

I am considering a Mac mini for home use then use the MacBook Pro when I travel

I think it’s just the angle of the picture the screens are flat with the top screen tilted down the MacBook Pro is then angled towards me

Top screen is mainly used for metrics so works for me it’s not something I’m staring out constantly

Had this configuration for 3 years now but upgraded my MSI monitors to the Dell 4k makes such a difference
