^^The twin arm can take up to 27" so good to go. I use this twin monitor arm with 2x 24" and it works a dream, the arm is built like a tank^^
OP, I posted this not too long ago: https://forums.macrumors.com/thread...e-pic-w-windows-laptop.1956045/#post-22564304 - this coming from an owner of 2 personal and 12 business P2715Q displays. I'm selling some of our Dells to make way for the BenQs I ordered. I've moved 6 for a decent return on the local CL portal this month already.
As for arms, you've ordered a Mac Pro - get an arm set with some style. In my office I use Herman-Miller Flo arms for my displays - they look and function so much better than their competitors.
As for cables, go with Accell cables, as I'd alluded to in the post above. I tested several cable brands, and Accell's DP cables were the only ones that did not return power over Port 20; I hate offering this, but Nippon's cables did return power over Port 20 and, thereby, are not "compliant" with DP's own specs (and, they're not listed on the displayport.org Product Portal either).
I vote "neither" of your options in your poll. Cheers!

I'm not exactly sure which one you posted here, but this one is better than the "#1 best seller" one. I have tried both and ended up keeping the one that I linked(NYCCO) because the "#1 best seller (VIVO)" one was very flimsy, used cheaper screws, and sagged when holding my to 24 inch monitors. The NYCCO brand on the other hand was solid and is currently holding my monitors perfectly.
Maybe I got a bad egg from VIVO, but read the reviews- a lot of people got bad eggs, but at the same time people are getting good ones too.

damn I already ordered the VIVO if it does not work thanks to prime I can return it lol. But my boss at work has it and seems to be pretty sturdy.
