Yeah the stand is not too complicated as it doesn't have the side mounts for surround (my side monitors are cheap and don't have Vesa mounts) but if you want to have one over the top then this is a good way to go. It also makes it a lot cheaper
The 'weight may be a factor' means that the mounting hinge may only hold a certain amount of weight before it could be unstable. 34" will be a bit heavier than a standard 27, especially if it's curved I imagine.
Overall with the 34 on the bottom it should have a lower centre of gravity. Depends how far the weight of the monitor extends forwards over the feet of the stand. You don't want it tipping over.
If you are looking at a specific 34" model let me know and I'll look it up.
I need to see:
- what the height is (Screen from Top to Bottom) to make sure it will fit between the base of the stand and the bottom bezel of the top monitor
- the distance from the mounting holes to the top and the bottom of the screen to see whether I have enough adjustment to make it fit without either becoming unstable or squished right up against eachother
- The weight of the proposed monitor.
If you have a 27" now then they should be a similar height to the 34". I only run 24s
I know the guys at WSGF have a custom stand for a heap of different monitor setups but they're a few hundred dollars ($US). The quality looks epic though they're properly engineered.
I'll google the Swifts specs and let you know how that one would fit when I'm home later.
Edit - Just found the Acer X34341CK specs. The weight (10kg) is 2kg over the limit for my stand (the limit
may be conservative) but overall the dimensions would fit.
I'd recommend going up a level in quality to something like the Atdec Visidec VFS-DV Freestanding Vertical LCD Dual Monitor Stand -

I'm sure there would be a European retailer or site for them mine just defaults to Aus.
These ones are certified for 27" monitors height, unlimited width and up to 12kg per display.
IF you're dropping the equivalent of $1300 AUD on a display then $250 for a stand is pretty good. Mine was bargain basement $70 but I'd hate to see you damage something.
