Deciding between these 2 chairs

xdeathshot20

So I'm looking for a new chair.  I'm debating between a op seat and a dx racer.  There the same price.  The only issue I have with the dx racer is that I have never sat in it personally nor do I know anyone who has so I don't know how they are for long term.  I sit alot at my computer so I want something confortable.  I've sat in the op seat as my friend has one.  If you have any other suggestions I am open to it.  Looking to keep it around 200 USD.  Preferbly black and white.  Thanks

All of those gaming/racing chairs from decent companies will be about the same, just make sure to buy one with a metal base instead of a plastic one.

May have to spend closer to $300, could always just look for used office chairs in your area.

I got a GT omega chair and it's been great to my back compared to the basic office chair I was using before

Save money and buy this one: https://secretlab.eu/collections/omega-series

Had it for 2 years and i have been able to play for 10h+ and never had any pains.

Those ones are more expensive?

I mean most chairs will be but a good "office" chair is more comfortable for long desking sessions than a gaming chair

You aren't going to find a "good" chair for 200. Sorry but that is the truth.

Theres actually a fair few that are known to be really great around 200$, like the Hyken Task Chair from Staples

I went through a bunch of $99 office chairs before I just nutted up and bought this one, for sure very comfy/functional.

A lot of these posts say the gaming chairs are uncomfortable, maybe they are, but when i sat in one at the computer shop last time they were seriously nice and comfy for me.

 

But seriously though, chairs are very hard to do unless you are personally experiencing it for yourself and for long hours so i say go try it at a place first before buying.
