I hate the stands that most gaming monitors come with, so join me in my one-man crusade to get everyone to use display arms this Cyber Monday

Most monitor stands are pretty rubbish, so why restrict yourself to limited positions when you can use a solid display arm instead? This Huanuo dual-arm set supports a wide range of sizes and weights, so it should hold your gaming monitors no problem.

Key specs: Dual arms | Up to 32-inch per arm | Up to 19.8 lbs per arm

Imagine you've just handed over $700 or more for a lovely big OLED gaming monitor, like the fantastic MSI MPG 321URX. Everything about that particular screen is great, but there's one thing I really don't like about it, and it's the stand. I mean, it's fine, but that's all I can really say about it.

Thanks to a wide and beefy bottom clamp, along with two thick spars with gas struts, the HNDS6 can handle up to two 32-inch monitors, with weights of 19.8 lbs or less. Unless you've got an enormous ultrawide screen, it should cope with almost anything you have.

Each arm can reach a maximum height of 16.2 inches, as measured at the center of the VESA mount, with an extension range of up to 11 inches. The latter will reduce as you fit larger and larger screens, though, and with a twin set of 32-inch monitors, you'll only get around 5 inches of extension.

That might not sound very big, but when you consider that this still gives the freedom to adjust the position, tilt, and rotation with ease, it's an acceptable compromise. The dual-spare monitor arm that I use is pretty much the same in this respect, and I've had no problems.

I'll bang on about monitor arms to anyone who will put up with me, but if you hate the rubbish stands that most come with just as much as I do, then you're in good company. Arm friends unite!

Nick, gaming, and computers all first met in the early 1980s. After leaving university, he became a physics and IT teacher and started writing about tech in the late 1990s. That resulted in him working with MadOnion to write the help files for 3DMark and PCMark. After a short stint working at Beyond3D.com, Nick joined Futuremark (MadOnion rebranded) full-time, as editor-in-chief for its PC gaming section, YouGamers. After the site shutdown, he became an engineering and computing lecturer for many years, but missed the writing bug. Cue four years at TechSpot.com covering everything and anything to do with tech and PCs. He freely admits to being far too obsessed with GPUs and open-world grindy RPGs, but who isn't these days?
