So I bought this guy on Amazon just a few weeks ago:
New Gaming Chair High-back Computer Chair Ergonomic Design Racing Chair https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HNTLIM4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_AYDKzbJ2EX38K
And it's incredible. It has this built in foot rest that hides away, leans all the way back and all for $100 shipped.
But then my friend was selling some of his old furniture from his setup so he could upgrade, and the Dxracer as well as the longer desk everything's resting on he put up for sale. I already had the chair from Amazon, but the reason I didn't spring for a Dxracer was the price. I was able to get the desk and Dxracer for $200 even. It was the homie hook up for sure, but I'm glad I did. He keeps everything he owns in incredible condition, and the quality and fit and finish is far better than the Amazon knockoff. I just wish it had the pull out foot rest.
Now my gf has a chair to game in, and I get to sit in the dx racer!
It is some off brand from amazon.
Office Chair High-back Recliner Office Chair Computer Chair Ergonomic Design Racing Chair https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HNTLIM4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_3aFeBb02V950W
Not too bad. I may invest in a better one here soon.
With a quick glance this seems to be the same for cheaper
> But what is supporting your legs at that point?
Some have a prop out recliner for your legs. Or could just put your legs on your desk like I did.
Yes they are very comfortable you should go to a micro center if there's any near you to test them out but here's the chair
Nah, this isn't one of those DX "We give everyone on twitch one so we can charge hundreds of dollars for a sub par chair" Racer chairs.
I love it!!! The only turn off for me is that you have tj tighten the arms ever 3ish months or they'll fall of or break, but if you just do it when they get wobbly you'll be fine. The other problem I had was that it came in different parts and you had to assemble it and mine did not come with instructions and thanks to the super generic name, I couldn't find any online and I just winged it and I build it fine. It's pretty self explanatory to assemble but takes a little thinking. Other that the tightening of the arms every once in a while and the missing instructions, it's a great chair.The material is quality fake leather and it's pretty cushy, idk if it's as good as a drxracer but it's very nice for the price and I really like the extendable footrest and the ability to put the chair way back, lay back on it and put your feet out on the rest. I would totally recommend it for the price of 99.00 USD + shipping (not amazon prime) here's the link: New Gaming Chair High-back Computer Chair Ergonomic Design Racing Chair https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HNTLIM4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_wX-Mzb8HXZM96
Enjoy!! :)
So I actually recently bought this chair,
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HNTLIM4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_MceeI98j4uY1Q
For the price it's actually pretty fair it is a little squeaky and the pillow wasn't like the perfect shape it had a corner messed up, but sitting in it for roughly 30hrs so far has been great! Feel like I got a good value
Seems to be where they screw in. I've tightened them a couple times and it helped, but they were never 100% sturdy like I'd like them to be. I don't put a very much weight on them, I use the seat itself to resituate myself. It's not really a dealbreaker for me though, they still do their job. Overall I'm happy with the chair.

I don’t recall (or have access to the amazon account to them up ) the floormat, or the neat looking wall chargers models, but I found both on slickdeals at some point in the last year
I also don’t know where I got my coasters, anti-slip mats(under the desk mat), Hardwood floor, trim, Wall color and paint type, or quarter round from. All of those I worked with when buying the house 3 years ago.
Oh and last things seen I haven’t mentioned. Is the cable from the wall is a 6 foot monoprice CAT6 Blue cable. The TV you can just barely see on the left is a VIZIO E400i-B2 40-Inch 1080p Smart LED HDTV. And finally the deskmat a friend got for me from a vape shop for like $10, not sure from where though, sorry
What I'm going to offer might not be ideal to others but with this budget, and avoiding threadripper. I would suggest you buy the best Gaming PC - Use this for gaming, streaming, and to edit your videos
Replace 2 fans from corsair with ML120 both fans
I would suggest you wait until i7 8700K comes out and only use one build for the time being but if you can't wait here is my suggestion. With this budget you should have 2 builds for streaming, one for solely gaming and the other will handle the other workload. Also make sure to be very aware of how you will deal with storage and how much you potential think you will need for the future.

This is the chair I use: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HNTLIM4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Just got it last month, it feels amazing when I lean back, although I have terrible posture, so it is taking some getting used to "train" myself to sit up correctly while gaming. I really wanted an Ewin Chair, but this was the cheapest alternative I could find at the time.
what's the name of the chair you got? i paid $150 for this: https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61TwFIBFdxL._SL1000_.jpg aside from having one of the lower prices, it seems to be well reviewed. it goes all the way 180* down to a laying position, and it has an extendable foot rest. the foot rest seems to be the big deal here, as more expensive models often don't have one at all, and others are known for being easily breakable. since you'd be taking the pressure off your hamstrings, it would prevent DVT right?
also, this chair has a metal frame and has a capacity of 300lbs, while other similar chairs come in at 275 or 250. there are 440lbs chairs for $180 as well. the cheapest is $100, and has bad reviews but would probably work perfectly for a smaller person: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HNTLIM4/?th=1
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HNTLIM4/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It's comfortable, but it feels a bit wobbly on the base. Might just be my chair but that's what I think of it.
