Hi guys, massive apologies for necro'ing this.

Would any of you be able to post some measurements of the STAND itself on this monitor please? I've been looking everywhere and all measurements are for both the monitor / stand.

This is because my desk is sort of an L shape, and I have the monitor in the back left corner of the L, so there is limited space width and depth wise, when I haveto fit my keyboard infront of it, and the wall is on one side too. This stand looks bloody huge, so I'm not sure how much room I'll have.

It is just the Width / Depth of JUST the Stand part I'd like, would you be able to measure and post these for me please? I'm thinking of buying one (along with a Gen 2 3D vision kit) as I've heard some great stuff, I just need to make sure I have room first. I'm from the U.K so this is the best available for me in my price range. smile.gif

  • B!0HaZard
  • HaZardously high overclocks are what I do
The stand is 35 cm wide and 25 cm deep without the S-Switch attached. the S-Switch adds 5 cm on one side of the stand.
Still a budget build

Massive thankyou! Exactly what I was after.

I'll get it measured up and if I have room, get it ordered. smile.gif

Edit: Wow good job you gave me those, thanks! I have nowhere near enough room for that huge stand! I'd need dinosaur arms to be able to type with my keyboard that close.

Will try and get a wall arm bracket for it I think :/

Edit again: It actually fits ok! Fortunately as the front part of the stand is sloped, my keyboard JUST fits over part of it. smile.gif

This screen is VERY bright (even on 0) but looking good so far!

Using Brightness 0, Contrast 50, Sharpness 5, Gamma 5, R93, G97, B98

I have aquestion, how wide and, more improtantly, high in cm is the monitor itself when its lifted all the way down. I have a shelft 44cm high from my table and i am worried if it will fit between the shelf and the table. I havent use any 24 inch monitor ever so i cant imagine how big it could really be on my desk even knowing the size in mm.

"lifted all the way down"? You mean like this?



The stand is 41 cm so it's actually taller than the screen.
And the monitor is 57 cm wide.
