Finally caved and bought a proper monitor arm for $120.

My desk was a mess of cables and my old monitor stand took up half the space. Mounting it cleared everything up and gave me back a ton of room to work. Anyone have tips for keeping the cables tidy behind the arm itself?

My old monitor stand never bothered me at all.

Yeah @jones.kim, my old one was fine too until I tried a cheap arm mount. Now I can't go back, way easier on my neck.

Cheap mounts are great until you need to move your desk around. Had to drill new holes in mine last week because the arm wouldn't reach the new spot. That flexibility can turn into a real pain.
