Dual Monitor Accessories Frequently Asked Questions
A dual monitor set up is a super convenient way to display two screens at once. Whether you have a dual monitor set up for work, school, gaming or everyday computer use, having a dual monitor desktop computer can be extremely beneficial.
The dual monitor set up is quickly gaining popularity—and for good reason. Keep reading to find out more about dual monitors and the amazing selection of dual monitor accessories offered at Lenovo.com
What is a dual monitor desktop computer?
Some desktop computers allow for a dual monitor, or two monitors, set up. A dual monitor set up is when two monitors are connected to the exact same computer. This allows you to have all of the same functions on both monitors, while also being able to display two different programs, videos, etc. on each monitor.
A dual monitor desktop is essentially the same computer, with two separate displays. Having two separate displays allows you to do more on your computer at one time.
Why are two monitors better than one?
Two is better than one is often a common saying, but it rings very true when it comes to computer monitors. A double monitor set up can greatly increase productivity and save time. This is a huge benefit for workers and students.
Two regular sized monitors can even be more cost-effective than one large one. If you were planning on investing in a large desktop monitor to get higher resolution and better visuals, you may want to reconsider. Two monitors can actually offer higher resolution than one large monitor.
And honestly, being able to do two things at once can be a dream come true for so many people. With two monitors, you can easily look at notes during a presentation, you can get important work done during a long meeting, you can browse the web as you watch a movie, and you can even do something as simple as checking your email as you work.
There’s a reason why so many workers, students, artists and gamers are making the switch to the dual monitor setup. It’s cost-effective, productive and can even be enjoyable.
Who can benefit from a dual monitor set up?
A dual monitor set up is a great option for just about anyone who uses their computer often and for important work.
For anyone that works in an office or has a heavy workload, the two screens set up can increase your productivity. By having two screens, you can work on two things at the same time, run two programs at the same time, or communicate with clients on one screen while referring back to your notes on the other monitor. There are so many great uses for dual monitors in the office. Switching from tab to tab is time-consuming and tedious. By using two monitors, you can avoid the pain of switching from tab to tab and program to program. It’s a simple solution for saving time and increasing productivity in the workplace.
These same benefits can be extremely useful for students as well. Having two monitors as a student allows you to do research on one screen while typing on the other. You can even work on two assignments at once if you are in a crunch for time. And if you are attending online class, it will be a lot easier to take notes on your computer while still participating in class on the other screen.
A double monitor setup is also great for gamers. While gaming you can use the extra screen to browse the web on downtime, watch videos, chat with friends or display walkthroughs and other information for the game.
And because a dual monitor set up offers better resolution, anyone that works as an artist, architect, photographer, content creator, videographer or in any other visual field, will benefit from the quality visuals offered by dual monitor screens.
Setting up your dual monitors
There are a few things you will need in order to have a double monitor setup. If it wasn’t already obvious, you’ll definitely need two monitors. You can buy these two monitors separately or as a dual monitor bundle. We definitely recommend doing a dual monitor bundle as it will likely save you a little extra money.
Once you have your two monitors, you will need a dual monitor adapter. A dual monitor adapter will connect the two monitors to one computer. Though if you buy a dual monitor bundle, oftentimes the bundle will come with an adapter.
Another way you can connect the two monitors is through a laptop. A dual monitor docking station will allow you to do this. The dual monitor docking station will give your laptop all of the capabilities of a desktop computer, as well as provide you with three screens.
Once you have this part set up, you’re ready to start using your dual monitors. Though to take full advantage of everything that a dual monitor has to offer, there are a few other accessories you can add to the set up.
Dual monitor stand
In order to set up your dual monitor desktop, you’ll need a dual monitors stand. A dual computer monitor stand has dual monitor mounts and allows you to position the two monitors at the perfect height for viewing—and the double monitor stand will hold the monitors in place. Having a dual monitors stand in place will prevent unnecessary clutter and help keep the desk space more organized.
While a double monitor stand isn’t a requirement for having two monitors, a dual monitor stand for desk makes it easier to move, angle, and adjust your monitors as you work or play games. Being able to adjust the two monitors with a dual monitor stand can help increase productivity.
We definitely recommend looking at dual monitor stands for desk if you plan on having a double monitor setup. Dual monitor stands for a desk will give your desk a much cleaner appearance. If you want extra organization for your desk, we suggest getting a dual monitor stand with storage. A dual monitor stand with storage will provide you with that extra storage space you might need to keep your desk as neat and organized as possible.
Another option similar to a dual monitor desk stand is a dual monitor arm. A dual monitor arm is similar to a stand because it holds both monitor screens and allows you to adjust them. While a stand stands straight on your desk, a dual monitor arm clips onto your desk and works as a dual monitor mount. The arm features two adjustable dual monitor mounts

Other accessories to level up your dual monitor computer desk
If you’re going to have a dual monitor setup, there are a few other accessories you can add to completely level up your dual monitor desk.
An accessory that can (literally) level up your double monitor setup is a dual monitor riser. A dual monitor riser acts as a platform for your monitors. Using a riser in conjunction with a stand or arms, will allow you to set your monitors at the perfect height. Using a dual monitor riser will also give you extra space on your desk. You’ll be able to store things under the riser, making for a more organized and spacious desk set up.
Another accessory you may want to consider is a wireless mouse or a wireless keyboard. Adding wireless accessories to your dual monitor setup will make for extra organized space. Wires tend to get in the way and provide an unattractive look, so going wireless with your mouse or keyboard can help you optimize the organization and tidiness of your desk.
Accessories can really make all the difference in having the perfect dual monitor setup. And there are so many accessories you can add to optimize your dual monitor setup. And they can all be found at Lenovo.com.
