XFX Eyefinity-ready Monitor Stand Hits Retail
AMD Radeon board partner XFX designed its triple-head monitor stand to make life easy for AMD Eyefinity and NVIDIA 3DVision Surround users. The stand holds up to three flat-panel displays in perfect alignment, and gives you control over the viewing angle, tilt, and panning of each display. This is handled by three VESA mount standard-compliant joints along the two arms and a central beam. The arms and trunk of the stand are made of durable steel, and a space-age base holds it all, to sustain balance. The base, along with the hollow trunk and arms facilitate better cable management, the base even acts as a USB 2.0 and audio hub. The XFX Triple Display stand is listed on Amazon for US $367.06.

I considered this for a moment... until i saw the price, its £356 at scan, over £100 more than the other triple screen stand there
![]() The cost of these really make me consider spending more like £120 on three separate stands to give me the ability to easily swap between portrait and landscape.

If you can afford to game with 3 monitors and the graphics card(s) and CPU needed to power them, then you can afford this stand...doesn't change the fact that a triple monitor setup is overkill, anyway.

Probably better to just get a bigger desk and use the stands that came with the monitors.

Glad I went with three cheap $25 desk/wall-mount brackets from Monoprice instead of this expensive piece or a huge desk.

I have 3 Dell 2408s, I also want a stand, but this price is a complete rip off and actually cost a lot more than I paid for my third 2408.

Although being so cheap with the monitors probably just shows that i should just do the same with the stands and get three cheap ones.
