Monitor Arm

After a duel monitor stand for my desk.
My desk is https://www.officefurnitureonline.c...t-day-solar-rectangular-cantilever-desks.html
It's not the best but when I was putting it together the "wood" was very heavy, so I think its decent quality.

I'm not very trusting of the thin ones which have little surface area on the desk (I imagine the weight on the monitors just snapping the desk wheres its attached.

Need some suggestions on what arm's to get, want something decent but fairy cheap.
Will be mounting 1 27 and 1 24 inch. Possibly upgrading to a 1 32 and 27 in future.

Either of these should do the trick, we have those desks at work (or similar) and they can handle heavy loads.

Im using some of the Arctic Z1 Pros on my 27's and 30. they are nicely made, and seem to not have broken my glass desk

Those look reeally nice! does anyone know if they would fit a non vesa monitor?

If you've got a non-vesa monitor, I think you'll be out of luck (unless you go down the DIY route of drilling some holes, but I wouldn't recommend this for most people)

The Arctics? They have holes at 75mm and 100mm, so you need the holes there...which would make them vesa. They do come with spacers and stuff to sort out monitors where the holes are on a curved bit, and they have all the different screws.

But, you still need the holes in the right places, unless you want to faff about with drills/adapter plates.
