What do you mean?
The triple monitor bow goes onto either the wall-mount or desk clamp mount arm as an attachment.
So you could have 3 of the LG monitors on the bow, they're only like 6 pounds each.

We have the same desk setup, except your countertop is more durable than mine, and mine could handle it. You're good as long as you have a leg under where it would be mounted in order to prevent eventual sagging

Cant imagine going from ultrawide back to anything else - I have the PG35VQ and tempted to actually sell it off and go to the 38 inch LG

The only thing stopping me from getting the 38 inch LG is I have no idea how I'd mount it properly or get a GPU that could push that many pixels in games.
But it seems like a fantastic monitor.

I've gotta say, having owned both, G-Sync Compatible is definitely not G-Sync.
G-Sync Compatible I have to cap my frames at -3 from the refresh rate to fully prevent screen tearing because it can't stay perfectly in sync when bouncing around the refresh rate cap, where with G-Sync it just works no matter what.

You're supposed to cap at -3 regardless of what type of async it is to minimize input lag. The reason for the cap is to avoid vsync kicking in while having it enabled because it has other benefits. Losing 3 fps to gain lower input lag is a no-brainer trade-off.

This isn't monitor-related but maybe someone can help me out. I need a good gaming keyboard with backlit keys since I'm playing EQ in dim light lately. Not going to spend too much on one, though. Just need something basic. I'm looking at these five. Going to order one tomorrow night. If anyone has a suggestion for something else or experience with one of these let me know.

At that price point everything is going to be pretty much the same quality wise. If you wanted to spend a bit more for a decent mechanical keyboard, I bought one of these to use at work. Quite pleasant to type on, no software necessary to mes with the lighting. It is a clicky keyboard though, so skip it if noise bothers you.

Clicking does bother me a little bit. I wish there were a spec on Amazon telling you the "level of clickiness" on all of these keyboards.
I'd kinda like one with a programmable auto-hotkey function for EQ farming purposes, but I have AutoKeyboard either way.

For that you pretty much have to find out what switches they use and then look up the details on them.

They help with the noise of bottoming out the keys, but the keyboard I linked clicks at the point of actuation as well. That and the keycaps aren't on simple posts so you can't put o-rings on them.

I JUST watched this. I will be out about $2500 early next year, or whenever the 3080's drop.

most annoying thing is putting on o-rings and then figuring out you dont need em, and they suck so you gotta take em off and they then fly everywhere!

The one thing I'm really disliking about the ultrawide factor is something he mentioned in that video. Some games give you a "fake" ultrawide by just reducing the vertical pixels. I was playing Terraria and a guy I was playing with was telling me to look at something at the bottom of the screen. He didn't believe me when I said I couldn't see it so we both took screen shots and compared. My horizontal plane showed exactly the same amount of data as his but there was a good bit clipped off the top and bottom in order to make the image fit the ultrawide resolution.
Update:
Here's what he sees

Man I'd probably buy that to see what the UW hype is about but..... 32:9? Why not 21:9? How many games or applications even support that? Otherwise, looks like a great monitor
