2nd Monitor Hi, Been considering a 2nd monitor or a while but due to size and desk space, not overly practical to have setup permanently hence have shelved the idea for now....

Is the USB-C to USB-C  anything special as they are cheaper elsewhere ?

PC doesn’t have a wireless card. Been looking at it seems I could get the same monitor I have now, albeit a slightly newer version (non touch screen) for less than £200…. however the monitor stand hampers my desk space so just looking at options for that – 2nd screen be handy but it’s not something I’d use all the time plus is an additional cost to have it on etc

Not sure wit this, needs some more though. My monitor arm only does 1 monitor so would mean either getting another one and fitting that or replacing mine for a 2 arm monitor arm (already got hole cut in top for arm to go though but the new version for 2 arms has 2 things underneath you do up to secure it to the work top and I just have enough room for 1 so that doesn’t look like it will work and I don’t really want to cut hole in top for another monitor arm.

 

More thought needed – portable be easy but working out bit costly for what you get, another standard monitor is much better value considering the size screen but again other costs re arm etc.
