click now to learn more so slick Diesel
0:17
and I all geeked out hardcore over this
0:21
thing at CES 2013 this is the ARM 2 LCD
0:26
interactive ARM which is probably the worst possible name for this thing but
0:30
basically it is silverstone's dual LCD Mount that Clips to your desk and this
0:36
achieves a couple of things so number one is it takes the probably crappy
0:40
stand that was built into your monitor and makes it awesome so it adds things
0:44
like uh pivot as well as hide adjust and move anywhere you want adjust and number
0:50
two is it helps save space on your desk because you don't have to have the stand
0:54
actually down on your desk oh okay I guess I should show you the box MIT
0:58
apparently stands for made in Taiwan if the build quality of this is anything
1:03
like the one we saw at CES then apparently that's a big deal because
1:07
it's freaking awesome um It's Made of
1:11
aluminum alloy as well as steel and pretty much works like this so there's a
1:16
piece here that allows you to clip it to your desk and oh man it just oh I love
1:20
the way this is built so this piece right here you can tell is made of steel
1:24
cuz it's got a lot of weight to it so this is what Clips on the desk and then
1:27
there's another piece here that Clips to this and then allows you to clamp it
1:32
onto the desk this is all extremely robust that should tell you
1:36
everything you need to know about it that noise right there then the other
1:40
pieces are made of aluminum so this guy right here is the shaft that the two ARM
1:47
uh arms uh screw down onto screws in pretty
1:52
deep there you go so that's nice and solid in there nicely threaded very
1:56
lightweight then what you do is you take two of these
2:01
and pretty much what these have are these like springloaded adjustable arms
2:06
so you can do whatever you want with them you can rotate them you can move
2:11
them up you can move them down and you can sort of move them in every possible
2:16
Direction these are such gorgeous aluminum too cuz they're extremely
2:20
lightweight there's plastic pieces in the bottom of them and then other than
2:24
that these are just like beautiful single piece aluminum pieces here so you
2:31
just use hex screws in order to affix them at the height that you want and the
2:35
whole thing pretty much goes together like that so it comes with an allen key
2:38
as well as all the hardware bits you'll need your monitors will need to be vase
2:42
amount compatible so not all of them are but most of them pretty much are there's
2:47
some other little pieces here so there's a little Cable Management piece that I evidently missed but hopefully Diesel's
2:52
installation video will be somewhat helpful for all of that and I think that
2:58
pretty much wraps it up other than that that I think we're just going to fill
3:01
this up with some Glam footage so let us know if you liked this video about
3:06
silverstone's ARM 2 LCD interactive ARM
3:10
basically there the the market for these
3:14
aftermarket um monitor stands has just
3:18
been so stagnant for so long with not
3:21
very much Innovation and I'm really happy to see a truly highquality
3:25
solution and it goes to show you how much we've been being swindled over the
3:30
years when Silverstone can build this
3:33
and bring it to market for a couple hundred when you were probably paying a
3:36
couple hundred for something that wasn't built out of aluminum and doesn't have
3:40
this kind of gorgeous industrial design so yeah they were taking an awful lot of
3:44
margin on these products before so kudos to Silverstone for addressing that and
3:49
bringing something truly unique to the market it holds up to two 24in monitors
3:53
I probably should have mentioned that before and uh don't forget to subscribe
3:57
if you like this video don't forget to like this video if you liked the video
4:00
or the product or both and don't forget
4:04
to leave a comment and let us know what would you do if you had a couple of uh
4:08
if you had one or oh man you could even run like a couple of these and you could
4:12
like put them on your desk and then you could have another one there you could even run a triple monitor display off
4:16
that position them exactly
4:19
perfectly okay we're done here
