Mounting: Can this monitor be mounted on a wall or LCD arm?

Don't think so - I looked at the back of mine and there are no holes for mounting brackets. The screen is very thin and is permanently attached to the base, which has all the electronics and connectors, so even if you could just clamp the monitor to a bracket, the base would be hanging below it.

No, it has no provisions for wall mounting. It is designed to sit on the desk. The screen slides and pivots which prevents mounting. Hope this helps. By the way, it's an incredible monitor, my son uses it for professional gaming.

According to information found at the below link, it is wall-mountable.http://www.cnet.com/products/dell-e176fp-lcd-monitor-17-series/specs/

Yes. Once attached you just turn the monitor. You can also just mount it in portrait to begin with.

As far as I know, it's meant to be used as a desktop. You can detach the base, but I'm not sure how you'd mount it on a wall... Suggestion: call up Micro Center and see if they have a similar VGA monitor and some type of wall mount. That's the best I can do. Good luck with your purchase... Best, Evan J.

You should be able to depending on your monitor - it does come with the mounting bracket attached.

I believe so, if you can mount the plate that holds the monitor, which you should be able to by drilling 2-3 holes to be screwed into wall (sheet rock anchors should suffice since the monitor is very light).

Thank you for contacting us with your question. You will need a Monitor Wall Mount to install it on the wall. We recommend you Look at the back of your monitor, find the mounting holes and measure width and height, if the pitch-row is one of the following data, then the mount will work perfect for you.

I did not wall mount this monitor; however, if I were going to wall mount this unit and didn't have a shelf to place it on, I would build a small sconce and mount it on a stud in the wall. I would be sure the unit was secured to the sconce with a least two screws through the base of the unit.

Yes you can. In fact, I have one set up just like this using a mounting arm for the monitor. This rig has lots of attachment points for just about any accessory you can think of.

No, I see no way to do that. Wall mount only unless one wanted to do some serious modifications.

With the single arm, the weight is the main factor. If the larger monitor is lighter than the one you are currently using and the holes on the monitor match up with the holes on the mounting plate, there should be no issues in using the arm with it.

There are two concerns - mounting and the spring counter-weight. I think the arm can be mounted with the weight, however the spring, counter-weight may not be designed to hold the weight. I would weigh your monitor first. Regarding mounting it -- make sure you go to a stud. If you place the mount in between studs, I would be afraid that the drywall itself would fatigue -- especially if you extend it all of the way out and start adjusting it. Eventually, over time, when the drywall isn't so new, it could give and break away from the wall. If you really have to go between studs, you should span the studs with a piece of plywood (affixing a 12"x 18" piece of plywood to the studs on either side), and then mount the arm to the plywood with butterfly anchors or similar.

The stand for it is adjustable and could be wall mounted. That would allow the monitor to then be attached to the stand. I don't think it is possible to mount the monitor to the wall without using the stand.

The monitor comes with a stand upon which you can certainly mount it, but it doesn't have mounting holes/hardware for attaching to a wall.

It would need some sort of special mounting kit, but I wouldn't think that would be too hard to create a way to hang it. It would stand out from the wall a good 4 inches with the closest mount, as he monitor is about 3 inches deep. It shouldn't be enclosed because it generates quit a bit of heat. My experience with this monitor has been incredible. And for the price, it is just unbelievable.

Perhaps you could mount the monitor in portrait mode, but it does not swivel. The vesa pattern is square so I see no reason the monitor couldn't be permanently mounted that way, other than balance issues maybe.
