Ideally, you should position your gaming monitor so you’re staring directly at the top of the screen when sitting up straight. This lets you see the whole screen without twisting or craning your neck. Most monitor stands feature some adjustability, including horizontal and vertical tilt, as well as height adjustment. We’ve found that the best way to position your monitor perfectly is to pick one that is VESA compatible and switch to an adjustable monitor arm (or even dual-monitor stand), which offers more fine control.
