I've been using the AVLT Single Monitor Arm Desk Mount Monitor Mounts & Stands for MSI's 23.6" G242C for my MSI 23.6" G242C monitor, and it's great! It's really adjustable and doesn't take up much desk space.

Yeah, you can definitely use a dual-monitor setup with the MSI 23.6" G242C! The VESA size is compatible, so that's a plus.

I've been using mine in a dual-monitor setup for about a month now, and it works great! No issues at all.

Hey guys, there's an article on TechReviewer Monitor Mounts & Stands for MSI's 23.6" G242C that talks more about monitor mounts and stands for the MSI 23.6" G242C. You might find it helpful!

Thanks, @NanoShadow4! I'll check out that link. The thing is, I don't know which type of mount or stand to choose. Can you give me some recommendations?

Well, I've been using a C-clamp mount with my MSI 23.6" G242C, and it's working fine for me. It's simple and affordable.

I went with a grommet mount because it provides better stability for my setup. It might be a bit more complex to install, but I think the extra security is worth it.

Thanks for all your input! I'll definitely consider these options. Has anyone faced any challenges or issues while setting up a dual-monitor system with the MSI 23.6" G242C?

The only issue I had was getting the VESA size and weight right when choosing a mount, but other than that, it's been smooth sailing.

Yeah, I didn't have any problems at all. I'm really happy with my dual-monitor setup using the MSI 23.6" G242C monitor.

I had to make sure the weight of the mount could handle my monitor, but aside from that, everything has been great.

Thanks for the advice! I think I'll go ahead and get a dual-monitor setup for myself now. Good luck with your setups, everyone!

You got it, @Chyllrend! Let us know how it goes once you set it up.
