You could always try 2 single hydraulic mounts.
I currently have one of these AmazonSmile: VIVO Dual Monitor Arm Mount for 17 to 32 inch Screens - Pneumatic Height Adjustment, Full Articulating Tilt, Swivel, Heavy Duty VESA Stand with Desk C-clamp and Grommet Option STAND-V002K: Computers & Accessories but had to drill a hole in my desk as the lip on the back wasn't big enough. Only regret is that I should have mounted it a few inches closer to the side of my desk to let the arms articulate a bit more as my left (secondary) monitor bumps the pole. I have my desk about 6 inches away from the wall and my primary monitor is about 4 inches in from the back of my desk
you could always try drilling a hold and mounting your current stand off center too. You might have luck with that
Sorry, just saw the message. This should be good enough:

Since you have a small desk and as an alternative to have the smaller monitor positioned vertically, maybe you could get a monitor stand/mount that stacks the monitors on top of each other. Then you can have two monitors positioned horizontally - though you'll have to look up to see the second monitor.
If you can clamp a mount to your desk, something like this mount provides good flexibility to position your monitors, whether one above the other or to flip a monitor vertically and to the side.
Of course, you'll need VESA-compatible monitors for this to work.
Oh I didn’t even notice the 2719DGF is a TN panel, I gotcha now. My monitor mount was $60 off Amazon, but the single arm is $40. So yeah about $220 for the monitor (after tax), $40-60 for the mount, you’d be under $300.
Here’s the mount I ordered, works great once you tighten all of the joints properly:
I bought this. It didn't have enough room to do my horizontal monitors on top of each other but one of them is a 27 inch and the other was a 23. I might work if they are both 23 inches or smaller. It is a great dual monitor stand, but all my monitors are next to each other with the right one being vertical.
I'm sorry that I can't help more, I hope you can find a solution!
No silly questions asked! I got it Here some reviews seemed concerning, but I have a 27” 1440p monitor, and a 24” 1080p monitor that are under the weight limit, and had zero issues, I think some people just aren’t capable of tightening it properly, or didn’t bother checking their monitor specs for the weight before buying

I have a minor issue with my monitor mount. I have a dual monitor mount that clamps onto my desk, and I own an Ikea table top and it definitely fits and wouldn't completely break through but it's leaning forward and eating into my desk. Is there any fix to this?
I believe the mount I have is this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DFT56Z7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Try this one:
I have a VIVO mount, different one, that I have zero issue with, but mines a dual monitor single post fixed position one.
I ordered this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DFT56Z7?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
based on the recommendations of others from this subreddit. I have a 16-17 pound monitor (old and really heavy) and it handles it like a champ. The last time I bought a shitty $20 monitor arm I returned it immediately after I had to catch my monitor because it couldn’t maintain the weight. Most newer monitors are now lighter, and if the Vivo stand can handle 17 pounds I’m sure it can handle most other monitors.
A bit pricey but I’ll be using this stand for years to come and even when I update to newer monitors.
I use this - it's also by VIVO but it's a higher quality model than their popular version that goes for ~$30-$40. I have been very satisfied with it. It allows for a great deal of adjustment - I use mine with a 25" monitor horizontal and a 27" vertical. My girlfriend uses one with two 24" curved monitors side by side. The arm works great for both configurations.
Thanks! I got this mount in a week or so ago and I'm really enjoying it so far. It also gives you the flexibility to mount them side by side if you want, so if I ever get different monitors I can do that
nah, it mounts to the desk with a clamp :) It's really stable, too. On the left, I am running https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DFT56Z7 for the arms. They're really good and also clamp to the desk.
No holes, drilling, or any sort of damage, either. Even with the cheap MALM 'desk' I have, you can't tell where the mounts used to be, and I've had monitor arms for about five or so years.

You would want something like this, where the arms are attached to a post: https://www.amazon.com/VIVO-Monitor-Pneumatic-Sit-Stand-STAND-V002K/dp/B07DFT56Z7
Grab yourself one of these, you won't regret it. It cleans up the space A LOT.

I saw someone recommend Vivo - I'd second that. I've got 2 24 inch ViewSonics mounted on this one - https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07DFT56Z7. It's relatively easy to move them around, although fine control is a bit tricky. If you plan on shifting them or rotating them constantly you might want to look at something higher end, but for simple mounting it's a good choice. A little jiggle happens when typing quickly, but nothing that is bothersome. clamp mount seems very stable on my desktop.
2 monitors, preferably same make and size so you can multi task while gaming...ok or working then get this https://www.amazon.ca/VIVO-Monitor-Pneumatic-Sit-Stand-STAND-V002K/dp/B07DFT56Z7/ref=asc_df_B07DFT56Z7/?tag=googleshopc0c-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=292938068583&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=14883201064138804552&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9000745&hvtargid=pla-520965870127&psc=1
You could always get a dual mount like this (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DFT56Z7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_MJGKV8N3ZESJ209XHVHR), which will offer you more vertical flexibility.
I too have a desk that’s 5” thick because it has a build in shelf below the desk surface. The max clamp opening clearance I’ve seen is 4.5”, so like me you may need to have to go with a vesa pole That mounts via a grommet hole....but this would require you to put a hole in the desk surface and have clearance underneath for running a bolt up through the surface. Another option is to use a free standing pole mount stand. Only down side to free-standing is it would limit how far forward you could extend the monitor arms before the monitor weight overcomes the center of mass and topples forward. If you don’t mind hindering the aesthetics a little, this can be countered by using 1-2 6” opening quick clamps along the back of the desk to clamp the free-standing base to the desk to prevent tipping if you intend articulate the mount arms all the way forward to the max.
Honestly I don’t know why they just don’t make the monitor clamps able to accommodate desks up to 6”...would still work fine for thinner desks.

Its a weird combination of two different mounts I had that I ended up using together in the end
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DFT56Z7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabt1_YsuRFbGGNWDZA?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 is for the actual arms as it let's me extend the monitors away from the base pole, letting me angle the top one way more than I normally could
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01CUW5HDU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabt1_evuRFbNGH3DKS?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 is acting as the actual pole to the desk holding the arms
Have had no issue with 2 pretty weighty 27 inch monitors
i suggest getting a dual monitor arm to mount both monitors on to clear up desk space and give a better overall look. i suggest this one off amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DFT56Z7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_ULA5DbXXDZ7CG
I've been using this VIVO one:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DFT56Z7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I've been really happy with it - it was really easy to attach to the desk and it's very adjustable.
The 27 is a Lenovo Q27q-10. It's really nice for working, but not the designed for gaming.
The arm is from Amazon: Vivo Dual Monitor Arm Mount.

The 34" is a bit much for it. I had two 27s w/o any issue. The additional weight difference between the 27 and 34 ended up starting to damage the IKEA desk surface. It's not solid wood.... so not really the arm's fault. I would suggest having a solid wood desk if you're going larger than two 27" monitors.
Hey!
I'm sorry for the late response, I missed the notification! :(
Thank you for all your attention and your help!
I think this would work great in case I position the stand in the center of the monitors instead of in the right and left.
I have just one last question (at least I hope!), can you please tell me what's the length of each arm? (I was thinking in case I want to leave the maximum distance of each as possible, like If I was separating the workstations.

Thank you for your help and attention. :')
I'm sorry for ALL the inconvenience.
I found two options on Amazon (even that I'm not in the US), both seem to be the same (OEM's from China), but can't choose each brand is better:
Which one would you recommend?
Thank you!
Hello, I currently have a single 29 inch ultrawide monitor+ pc-011 dynamic setup, looking to get a desk and a monitor arm. Have come across the following
https://www.ikea.com/ca/en/p/gerton-tabletop-beech-50106773/
2 of these
https://www.ikea.com/ca/en/p/finnvard-trestle-with-shelf-birch-30345717/
and this for the monitor arm
​
Questions:
- Are there better alternatives to the trestle I chose compatible with the tabletop? I just wanted it to be height adjustable but avoided spending on an electric table mount.
- Does the tabletop support the monitor arm well as in, likely to get damaged over time due to the weight?
I'm using the Vivo pneumatic dual arm mount.
Edit: Here's a link for anyone looking to get the same one.
