I think you'll be okay on the weight. From what I've read on the Asus PB278Q, that weight is with the base still attached. Removing the base removes a significant amount of weight from the display. Do you have any of those panels now? Can you weigh one without the base attached?

You may run into an issue with the overall height. I've just gotten in some taller poles that I will be placing in the store shortly. They are 36", compared to the 28" pole that is standard in the kit. I checked the TV, and you'll need one of the VESA adapters that we sell in the store, as the TV uses a VESA pattern of 200x200.

Currently have 3 Benq 2720xl's and was wondering if I could mount a 34" curved or flat monitor as my plus one above or below? Thanks in advance.

Yes, this will work. I would probably go flat, given the weight and weight distribution of the curved panels (and my experience with the VESA mount on the curved LG).

I've also got 3 of these exact same monitors - what do you think is the maximum size for the 1 above monitor we could mount? I was going to mount a 40" 4K TV above mine coming off the wall, however if I could get something similar (or a little smaller I would suspect) mounted on the actual stand, that would save a lot of hassle.

Thanks for the reply.I know that I can easily get the VESA adapter as an addon item; but if I were to buy the set up you mentioned (3+1 config with the 36" pole) would it be a custom order, something I have to address to you personally before purchasing?

No. Once I get this round of backorder fulfilled, I'm going to load the 36" pole into the store. You can simply add it and the VESA adapter to your cart at the time of purchase.

With the included 28" pole, a 27" monitor is the largest. Going to a 36" pole adds 8" of vertical height.

A 27" monitor has a vertical height of about 14.3" (looking at the Dell 27" panel). I checked Amazon for the Samsung UN40HU6950 (just picked it at random). It's height is 21.2". You're adding about 7" of height, which is within the increase.

The Samsung TV is 25.1 pounds. I'm guessing this is with the stand. That is right at the 25 pound limit of the regular adjustable pivot. I would recommend getting the HD adjustable pivot. Those are $50. I can get a few and put them in the store.

So, with the 36" pole, a 40" HDTV seems to be the limit. We sell a VESA adapter, and can get the HD adjustable pivot for you.

Thanks for the reply mate! I will see how I go with the stand and then perhaps order one later down the track. I don't assume you have anything available now to include in the package with the stand when you send it to suit the 40" HDTV above?

Sending you a PM. I've got the 36" pole. I can get you a custom invoice for that part and include it with your order - before I get it in the store.

Stand for 3x 27" Samsung

Post by roxjas »

Hi there,

I'm new to the forum. I'm using 3x 27" Samsung monitors model S27B350H. I've been using their stock stands on my desk and my neck is telling me its time for a proper stand. Can you help and how much would it cost? I live in Calgary, AB, CANADA.

Thanks

Jason

These monitors do not have VESA mounting holes in the back. Those are required to use any of our stands. Sorry. Monitors of this size with a VESA mounting 100mm mounting pattern would require the WSGF Ultimate v2.

Misaligned Portrait Monitors

Post by Kiteman »

I have 3 Dell 27" monitors (U2711) mounted in portrait mode. But I can't for the life of me align the edges of the monitors. Essentially the outer monitors hang lower and have a different pitch compared to the middle one. I tried different positions with the pivot but I can't get it to work. Any help would be appreciated.

Here's a link to the instructions I provide with the WSGF Edition stands. It has some helpful tips.

http://www.wsgf.org/f/u/100-D16-B03.pdf

If the outer monitors pitching forward, then you need to use the adjustable feature on the pivot to tilt the monitor back. You should be using the adjustable pivots on the outside, where you can use the screw knob to raise them.

A common issue is not having the center monitor squared. You should get a small wood level, and ensure that it is square and true - particularly checking to see that it isn't pitched forward or backward.

3x1

Post by Yashu »

My setup is 3 27" monitors side by side, and a 39" 4k monitor above. Is there anything here that would work?

Yes, the WSGF Ultimate v2 will work, if you purchase the XL pole with it.

Hi skip, I am excited that the out of stock sale is back. I'm going to purchase a monitor stand! However, I am intending to do a 3x2 setup. How do I request parts for that type of setup? What additional parts do I need to purchase? What do you recommend? :)

I'm doing two rows with 2 on top, 3 on bottom:
[ ] [ ]
[ ] [ ] [ ]

All will be 24" monitors. One day I'd like to upgrade the whole set to 27" monitors.

To do this with 24'" monitors, you can add this part to the order - http://www.wsgf.org/products/upgrade-kit-2x-bar.

To do it with 27" panels, you would need a standard "triple bar", which can be purchased from Ergotech here - http://shop.ergotechgroup.com/triple-cr ... xed-wings/ It costs $105. You could take the wings off while you had just 2x 24" panels.

Whew, I am glad I checked back. Looks like you guys are running another out of stock sale until end of October, so starting to think about buying again.

Final question skip, I have a standing desk, meaning I mount my monitors quite high compared to the level of the keyboard. I've measured my current monitor setup, and my 1st row of monitors should be mounted around 18" off the desk and the second row should be 16" above that (second row should mount at 34" above the desk). As a result, I am thinking I need either the 36" or 48" pole to accommodate. Do you carry these? Can I request that one be swapped out of the standard poles, or do I need to order a longer pole from Ergotech? Any compatibility issues if I decide to do that?

We sell the 36" pole in the store. You can get either from Ergotech if you wish. There are no compatibility issues. All of the parts are interchangeable. You'll just want to watch the weight distribution as you get them higher.

I understand that you are currently out of stock at the moment, but I am very interested in purchasing the ultimate v2 kit. I just have one major question... Will the kit be able to hold (3) ASUS ROG Swift PG278Q monitors in 3 x 1 landscape orientation? my main concern is whether I would be able to mount the monitors in a semi circle sort of shape? I absolutely would not like to have a completely flat 3 x 1 configuration.

If you could answer this, I would deeply appreciate :)
