Thoughts on chairs for gaming? I see all the LoL pros use these on their streams. Is it worth the $300?
>>344257386
They get them for free and a paycheck to use those shit chairs faggot. They are paid to shill them to you.
>LoL pros
Nevermind. Go ahead and get one.

The chair isn't. Your back is, get whatever works to support and promote good posture, don't skimp out in that if you spend a lot of time in the chair
>>344257386
It's the same as getting a "gaming" mouse with no extra buttons, or a "gaming" keyboard with no macros.
It does fuck all except look like an eyesore to everyone else who has better taste in furniture and interior design than gaming posters, resin figures and empty cans of mountain dew.
All in all, good players don't need such shit to "perform"
One of these is exactly the same build quality and comfort except it isn't covered in ricer graphics and costs 1/3 as much. Source: I work at a store/supply warehouse for office products and we have demo versions of all of these.
>>344258157
It is even better quality. The base for that DX Rizer chair is just cheap plastic. Yours has metal pieces and bits.
>>344257386
>I see all the LoL pros use these on their streams.
It's because they get them for free, to get ppl like you to buy one.
It's Dxracer's advertising plan and it seems to be working.
Anyway those chairs are shit.
If you want a good chair that is good for your back, get one from Herman Miller.
Embody Line is pretty good. You can spend a whole day in those chairs without feeling any discomfort. Mirra2 is comfortable as well.
Cost a fortune though...
>>344257386
Yes, buy it OP, it's what gamers crave
>>344258360
That chair looks like it would spring shut and kill you if you sat in it. Like some Saw death trap shit.
recommend me a nice cheapo chair? I'm shopping for one online and I was wondering if any of you have any recommendations or chairs that you use that are nice and cheap preferably less than 100 dollars
>>344257386
Why do these things have bolstering on the sides like racing seats? To keep you from falling out of your seat from all the g-force you're going to experience playing video games at your desk?
Just get a comfy ergonomic chair instead of one designed to keep you from falling out of a car seat, idiot.
Anyone using a Herman Miller chair with the lumbar support?
How high do ya'll keep the lumber support? It hurts my back when I keep it in the actual lumbar region.
>Using anything but a recliner for maximum comfy

>>344258157
What's it called?
Anyone know why my upper bacl hurts when I sit at my computer? I'm sitting up straight correctly like the pictures show. but I don't know if it's me or the chair.
They're much better than the cheap office chairs most people use, if you buy something cheaper it will probably be lower quality.
I'm using a barstool because I'm a poorfag
Any good chairs for less than 100 dollars?
>Sitting to play videogames
Thats why you buy a console, amigos. To lay in your bed and play some comfy vidya

Got a comfortable chair for $12, few months now and the seem on the cushion is starting to tear but it's still fine and for 12 bucks I couldn't be happier.

You know what you can do instead? Exercise your back regularly so your back muscles do their job of keeping your spine straight, and then you can see on a fucking stool all day and your back will still be fine, in fact, it'll be even better than it was before.
>>344261215
I excersized once. And fucked up my back.No thanks. SS is a meme anyways.
>>344261406
You don't have to do Olympic lifts. Do like 20 bodyweight good mornings every day and your back will never give you problems related to your back being out of shape. Takes less than 2 minutes.
>>344259132
Means you have a weak/inflexible back.
Thwy are good bro but if your big get racing series. But ya they are pretty good
what chairs do you have anons?
They are worth it because you can lean them all the way back and theres alot of dofferent comfort options. Just watch a review on youtube
>>344258959
If you want a decent and cheap chair I'd honestly go to Staples if you're in the US and try out a few. I know the Hyken chair is a pretty popular and favorable model. Right now it's over $200, but I've seen it come down to about $130 if you want to save a bit more and wait for a sale.
>>344261046
You must be a couple of fatasses
>>344262318
This is a literal meme chair everyone posts it everytime as a different optiom but it doesnt have as many features

They feel amazing but I'm not sure if its worth the hassle to get a third after this one wears out.
>>344262617
You should try losing 200punds first, fatso,
>>344262757
if you buy enough you get 2 chairs for 1 since you have enough double parts
>>344257565
I've never seen such an accurate post.
>>344262895
but thats like my weight there
Sure it has really good build quality
it maybe good for you back
but it isnt comfy chair.
>>344262498
Seriously? I had no clue.
I just recommended it because I sell this and lots of people love it. Granted I wouldn't recommend paying the full price and waiting for a good sale on it.
>>344259598
I use one of these
It makes my back hurt

>>344266245
it isn't leather friendo
>>344257386
It's a fucking chair. You just place your ass on it, there is nothing that separates it from any normal chair.
Just go to any furniture store and buy a comfortable high quality chair. It will last way longer than any Gayman chair.
The pros use them because they get them for free or they even get payed to use them.
>>344258360
I prefer the good old Aeron.
>>344266821
While I worked at Sony Liverpool game testing everyone used this chair it was comfy as fuck
>>344265980

Gaming chairs are an even bigger ripoff than gaming mice & keyboards. You have to be a huge fucking faggot to fall for this scam bullshit.
Just get a nicely made office chair for like $150.
I just went to a local place that sells surplus office equipment. Got me a slightly damaged executive chair (some of the paint on the plastic is peeled off and the material is worn one side where its rubbed against a desk or something) for 50 bongs - brand new said chair was just over 200 bongs. It gives me plenty of lower back support and reclines nicely which is all I ask.
Lesson here: see if there is anyhtingl ocal to you as great deals can be found.

>don't waste your money on this $300 crap

Nigga that is 5 times the price of a dx.
>>344258360
These chairs are PERFECT. You can't even fucking order one as a consumer in my country (had to pretend I was a buisness?)
But man, like I'm a complete piece of shit n33t as mother fucker that sits in this chair ALL DAY and I get ZERO discomfort. My biggest problem is how my legs feel when I've had them up on a box for too long.
I'm a huge fat piece of crap and this thing can adjust width ways so I can't even feel how fat my ass is. I've also abused the shit out of it putting my weight on the handles every time I get up, and it has not even began to break from it.
It's very expensive though, but you get what you pay for. Cheaper than all the chiropractor shit I'd have to be going through right now if I was a poor shit that spend only $300 on a chair I spend most my life in.
What's more, it LOOKS fucking sweet, and isn't a meme ass racing chair child-toy. It looks like it fell out of space and you can have it in a bunch of different colours.
The wheels? The wheels are SMOOTH AS FUCK. You chose specific ones for hardwood or carpet floor, and man I got the hardwood ones and it just slides along the floor like a beautiful silk boat riding on cum. I even got plastic bags all tangled up in them for a while which kinda ruined it but when I finally decided to clean them out it was like re-entering that sweet free flowing dream all over again.
GET one of these.

>>344268474
One of these. You will actually lose track of your own weight gain from how little you notice how much of a fat shit you are sitting in this chair.
>>344268098
Yes. It is. It's the literally chair equivalent to 24 carrot gold.
It is in fact SO perfect, that sitting in other chairs afterwards is quite uncomfortable. It's so good it amplifies how bad other shitty chairs are.
I used to have a lot of back problems until I got this shit, I've suffered nothing since getting it. You aren't just buying comfort, you're buying future health.

Is it good for your back to be lying in bed all day with a laptop?
Just curious.
This is *literally* the equivalent of a car bed.
I don't even understand why I bought an office chair in the first place. I don't even sit properly most of the time. I'll always slouch till I'm almost lying in missionary position with my legs on the desk.
Here's an illustration to help you visualise

>>344273619

You can't do the missionary position alone, anon. What you're doing is just regular lying down.
>>344273619
Maybe get a lounge chair instead
>>344257386
I 100% guarantee that they are overpriced, and I say that because all the pros only have them because they have been given to them for free

You have TWO options:
1. You blow 1000$ on an Aeron chair.
2. You spend 89,99$ for an Ikea Malkolm chair.
>>344274741
Or you take your health seriously and don't skimp out on the most important investment of using a PC.
>>344274791
Assuming everyone is an obese slob such as yourself.
>>344274251
Made some hats for TF2. No joke.
>>344274885
I'm going to go ahead and assume you're genuinely ignorant and not baiting; your posture is important at any body weight or BMI. If you're obese, lithe or anything inbetween, your health is at risk.
Sitting all day has many risks, even more when you add in typing, mouse movement and looking at monitors. You should never cheap out on a chair if you sit for hours a day. Ever.
>>344257386
I got a Maxnomic. Same idea as the racer, but they have more options for bigger chairs. I think the dxracers (at least the ones on amazon) are for manlets and women.
It's pretty comfy, main gripe is lack of general cushioning. It's more firm, but does support me and has various ways to adjust how you recline in the chair.
I'd buy a gaming chair just so you can actually lie back and rest your head on something.
>>344257386
Nigga what are you smoking?
That looks uncomfortable as fuck.
For $100 more you can get a leather wingback office chair.
>>344275313
Terrible chair.
I have a Maxnomic something or other (Chief maybe? It's all black.) and it's a $400 piece of shit imo. Only comfortable if you are sitting completely upright, can't cross your legs in it, the seat part feels too long, it makes awful noises and the armrests are hard as fuck.
Turns out sitting in a racecar seat all day fucking sucks. Definitely top 5 worst purchase I've made in my entire life.
>>344257386
Fucking kill yourself.
>>344259598
as long as you're not using this metal chair or a wood chair and you spend $50 on a regular office chair, you're good

>>344275184
Same, maxnomic office-comfort here
Its not the comfy couch type shit, but it does work well as a very adjustible office chair.
If only they'd remove the wings from the back too, not just the seat...
>>344275313
wow that is horrible
non breathing material, hope you enjoy sweaty ass after 10 minutes of playing a video game
>>344258157
Oh wow, I have a similar chair except it's white and black, and has a small hole in the back. Can reccomend, really comfortable and affordable. Only downside is after awhile the seat tears open to show the shit inside, and if you don't get it already assembled you're going to have a bad time putting it together.
>>344272592
Post your chair then, you bitch.
>>344275201
>that feel when you can recline to a laying position after a good fap

22, had a computer when guild wars 1 came out, never replaced the chair because I didn't feel uncomfortable, my desk is literally a screen's length as well.
>>344275448
Should've gone for the office version
For everyone here, look at the picture.
You may regret buying a chair with a seat like on the right - but you will DEFINITELY regret buying a chair with a seat like the left.
Pretty much all gaming series chairs have the left.
>>344274741
>tfw it's 2k $ in EU :^)
>>344276391
And you think ergonomic issues would've come up by now since you are so extremely old - 22?
The issues you'll get from bad posture, from using a terrible chair with no thought of ergonomy on your setup will come out in the next ten years anon, and if you did really bad you'll suffer them for the next 40.
See pic related, this happens because when you are young your tolerance for discomfort is very high and you just literally don't care about long term effects, and thus golems are born and other shit.
Do yourself a favor and never skimp on things that separate you from the ground.
>>344276207
>not living in a part of the world that doesn't breach 16 degrees in high summer
It's like you want to get eaten by insects.
These racing/gaming chairs are a total scam.
You can get a refurbished Steelcase Leap or Humanscale Freedom or Aeron for the same (or even less) money. Those are real chairs.

I bought one of these and returned it a week later. These chairs are incredibly stiff on the back and ass. Not recommended for long gaming sessions. I found myself constantly shifting in my seat and having upper back pain after a few hours of gaming.
I ended up spending the money and a cushy, ergonomic office chair from an office chair specialty store.
AkRacing pro flips over really easily. Almost injured myself with that shit.
>lean forward
>chair shoots away from under you
>>344257386
It's nice. The side bolstering is especially useful if you're sniping around a tight corner. Keeps you in the chair despite all the g-forces.
>>344276832
Japs actually develop some fucked up condition if they use seiza style too much
the picture is an example, its one thing you can get from bad posture
You can do a lot more, lot different shit.
But whatever, as I said, young faggots are incapable of thinking longterm, which is why I get this reaction now.
I did it too 10 years ago.
>>344277116
You should never be leaning forward while sitting anyways.
Unless you were grabbing for food or somethingfatty
>>344277116
The way things seem Akracing and Arozzi seem quite a fucking cheap competitor to DXracer - who now produce worse quality staff than they ever did because they are the most well known brand.
I think my maxnomic is overpriced - but as it is still cheaper than a real office chair and much more adjustable I'll stick to it.
>>344259598
enjoy your back issues and hemorrhoids
Any thoughts on the Herman Miller Sayl? It's significantly cheaper than Aeron, and I'm not sure I'm ready to drop 1-2k $ on a chair
I spent a shitload on one of these, maybe not worth the money but they're better than the shitty IKEA one people recommend.
>>344277392
I don't think hemorrhoids have anything to do with how or on what you sit on.
Unless it isn't a chair.

I just need a DP cable to hook the monitor up, but holy shit the throne is so nice. The arsenal of adjustments is really good, and it's one of those rare chairs which encourage you to sit properly because of how damn comfy it is
>>344277651
This may be the absolute worst thing you can do to yourself long term.
>>344277698
Yeah, thats one of the best ways you can get a good, cheap chair.
Sadly my company doesn't replace chairs until they are broken as shit so no chance to snag one in good quality.
Buying a gaymer chair was cheaper than buying the (worse) office chair I have at work.

hemorrhoids are inflamed veins, cuts and anal fissures aren't directly related or descriptive of hemorrhoids
to avoid hemorrhoids, get adequate fiber intake, drink a gallon of water a day, always use a squatty potty, never strain while defecating and don't spend more than two minutes on the toilet
