Video Description
I tested 7 different monitor setups at home - dual, vertical, stacked, even an iPad - to see what actually works for focus, comfort, and getting things done. In this video, I’ll break down the pros, cons, and which setup I’d recommend if you’re working from home, gaming, or just trying to be more productive. 🙏 Thanks to OBSBOT for sponsoring part of this video. 👉 Check out the OBSBOT Meet 2 compact 4K webcam: 🇺🇸 US https://amzn.to/3IdjnV3 🇬🇧 UK https://amzn.to/46lsJIo 🌐 https://bit.ly/4ewLAlW (Use Discount code 2025OBSBOT - code expired) Also, anywhere I mention my OCD levels about monitor setups - I am being sarcastic. 🖼️ Wallpaper: https://bit.ly/3XYlrp7 🖥 Links & tools mentioned: • Rectangle for Mac window management: https://rectangleapp.com/ • FancyZones for Windows: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/ #DeskSetup #MonitorSetup #Productivity #obsbot_meet2 #OBSBOTEsports #OBSBOTxEWC #primeday Timestamps 00:00 Intro 00:29 Setup 1 01:26 Setup 2 02:12 Setup 3 02:53 Smart webcam for setups 04:31 Setup 4 05:10 Setup 5 06:04 Issues with Setup 4 and 5 06:41 Setup 6 06:58 Setup 7 07:28 Final thoughts Images used: https://unsplash.com/photos/a-computer-monitor-sitting-on-top-of-a-desk-WTWYGDNBGts https://unsplash.com/photos/black-computer-keyboard-on-black-table-HqPqSlrNrOE https://unsplash.com/photos/black-and-silver-office-rolling-chair-beside-white-table-mrPTtn1YSZg Some links here are affiliate links.
