Generally I have a 4x multi-monitor setup that I personally prefer, but I know a ton of people love this, just make sure you have plenty of desk depth haha.

She's a beauty. She sits a little high using the stand provided for my taste so I went with a motorized tv stand which solved my problem, not to mention looks cool. I paid $1500 almost a year ago and absolutely recommend at $1100

I love my Ark but had to learn to live without my multi monitor setup. Not a fan of the multi view feature on the ark. 4 monitors feels much easier to navigate if that makes sense

Yup. it's why I have my current setup instead of an ultrawide - well that and I game often on a ps5 and an ultrawide means black bars.

It's wall mounted and made sense for my setup. https://a.co/d/0ghf33f2

I've personally found the 32" to be the perfect monitor size, but I believe there are some 37" 16x9 OLED's releasing this year.
