, before my attempt, and I would recommand anyone to study the build of their monitor by manufacturer, to do the same. It goes without saying that you should have had the monitors already at the desired program setting before you start, I'll explain why later.
TLDR: remove the outter case so you have less black boarders.
First step as always is to have a workspace that is free of static, either a wooden table or rubber mats or both.
Asus is really good in how it seperates the stand component from the outer case component. So the first thing I do is lay the monitor face down on the rubber mat and then using a non-magnetic screwdriver take out the four screws holding the support stand. I arrange my screws in the same manner I took them out just incase there was variation or deformaties. Didn't take a picture of that since it was really obvious, but we'll be re-attaching the stands to the monitor after the outter case has been removed.
Grab a Flathead and find the space between the casing to start widening it off. You will eventually get to the plastic clips just ally light pressure and they'll come off bit by bit.
As you work your way around I found it was best to work on the ledge of the table so the monitor would have free space to divert the force, making it less likely to break.
After you removed the backside you will see where the controls are located. Now turn the monitor over on its back, and slowly take out the controlchip from front side of the case; careful to keep it attached to it's circuitry.
Now put the screen end of the monitor back on the table and turn the circuit board around to the back and tape it secure.
This is done to make it look nicer for the front, and because that blue light gets really annoying. so that's really 2 birds with a stone right there. I mentioned before to have your program settings all set before taking out the case, and this is why. You can still make adjustments when the computer is turned on, the buttons are just now reversed I keep one case around so I can read what each button does Its only slightly annoying if you have to do it.
Now we simply use Black electical tape to cover-up the silver boarders.
Re-attached the stands.
You'll have to re-adjust the bezel corrections now that your monitors are closer together, I can now use 45 degrees , instead of the 76 I had previously.
and we're good to go. I arrange my trifold with the middle in the front and the sides behind, thereby leaving only one bezel on each side to deal with. The reason I still had to remove the outter cases for the other two monitors was to allow more room to get close behind the middle monitor.
Pardon my ruler holding its hard to hold still while taking a phone picture with another hand. But as you can see its about a centimeter maybe 1mm under as a result.
