so is the... depth problem.. not width
u rotate table 90 degree

Then his little brother will be hitting the table legs? lol.

Im using a 80cm depth table and used a 27" monitor before. Still looks okay, slightly small. Now 32" is just nice but cant go too near to it.

Anyway, when looking at a table from top view, you can call it width. But looking at it in 3D or in the real world, its called depth of table.

Slightly small refers to what? Monitor or table

27" Monitor seems slightly small when i sit at about 80-90cm away from the screen. For a 32" monitor at same dist of 80-90cm, it feels slight big coz i have to turn my head just a little to see everything. But for 27", should be fine coz everything is within your eye's vision.

Dont use too big. Personally, 27" too big for that depth. Have a 80cm depth table, used to have 27", reduced to 24" more comfortable for viewing.

What width? You mean the distance between your eye and monitor?

Everyone have their own preferred distance. You test yourself you should already know the distance you are comfortable with right?

Once you have that distance then you adjust or decide yourself.

if you can install a sliding keyboard+mouse tray underneath the table, then you can increase the viewing distance by the width (or depth) of the keyboard drawer.
