My buddy said to raise my monitor up to eye level and I ignored him for months

I had my monitor sitting flat on my desk for like a year and my neck was always killing me after gaming sessions. My friend Tom kept telling me to grab some risers or even just stack books under it. I finally picked up a $15 monitor arm from a garage sale last weekend and set it at the right height. My neck pain went away in two days and I can't believe I waited that long. Anyone else have a simple fix they put off way too long?

@gavinhunt exactly. Used to think it was overblown, the whole monitor height thing. Then tried it and wow, what a difference. Can't believe I let my neck suffer that long either.

Totally feel you on this. my neck was wrecked for months before I finally propped my monitor up on some old textbooks.
