Do you game with your Monitor straight infront or off to the side?

Gimpymoo · 24 Feb 2011 at 20:03

Ok, not sure why, but I prefer to have my monitor positioned "off left" to where I am sitting.

It somehow feels wrong if it is directly infront of me.

Am I the only one with this freakish behaviour?

Yeah I have it slightly off centre.

Off left, but it needs to be to have the other monitor in a comfortable viewing position. Maybe got a 60%-40% bias toward the monitor I game on.

This.

In the very early days of my PC gaming 'life' my old CRT monitor and desktop PC sat on a very narrow desk and so had to be placed well off to the side so I could fit my keyboard on it. Anyway, once I started feeling more comfortable with my neck turned in that direction rather than straight-on, I knew it was time to change.

Main monitor dead center infront, keyboard straight too, prolonged gaming with head turned at an angle gives me neck ache.

monitor dead center, keyboard tilted 10 degrees

position varies

Keyboard and mouse are off centre (to the right) from the monitor, but my chair is turned to face the monitor directly (slightly to the left with the monitor turned a bit to the right).
Dunno why, just feels comfortable.

everything off left

never thought about it before, but centred is just weird

Kosmiche · 24 Feb 2011 at 22:41

monitor in the centre, keyboard in the centre

caz32 · 24 Feb 2011 at 23:20

monitor centered, mouse and keyboard right up to the edge of my desk

My monitor is slightly left of centre, but that's because I have have a secondary monitor to the right and it wouldn't fit otherwise.

Monitor dead centre, me in a cooking pot wearing a safari suit.
