I have two of this 27 inch monitor model on the way:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L8LTB3W/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Can't seem to find a dual articulating monitor mount that would clamp onto my desk. Ideally I would like to have the ability to view them side by side or top and bottom, hence the desire to have the ability to articulate. I believe I need something that is VESA 100 compatible.

Anyone have any suggestions?

I have always thought it was most practical to use SINGLE articulating arm units, for you never know how your display setup will evolve. Having singular brackets solves some of the future stuff (changing from 2 to 3, or 3 20" to 2 28" screens (not possible on most DUAL brackets).
GREAT single bracket for wallmount: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=0N5-0004-00001&cm_re=monitor_bracket_VESA_100-_-0N5-0004-00001-_-Product

Also mounting on a stable wall as opposed to the desk base is a better choice IMO. Would rather put holes in the drywall than in my 2" oak tabletop I use for a PC / Art desk.

That being said... is wall-mounting an option for you?

Most dual brackets may struggle under the total load of two 27" monitors...

Most dual brackets may struggle under the total load of two 27" monitors, and again youll be gashin the desktop. Save the wood or pressboard or glass (hope you dont have a glass desk lol).

Sorry I forgot about this. The monitors arrived and look great. One of them has a stuck, red pixel though. Attempts to unstick it ahve failed. Going to need to exchange through Amazon.

I'll likely go the single arm route. I have three grommet holes in my desktop from which to mount. Wall mounting isn't feasible since I am facing into the room.

Thanks.
