Best monitor and chair for 1000 usd?

Rosa · July 31, 2016

I currently have some awful staples chair and an asus mx 23 inch ips 60hz monitor 1080p. I have a 970 strix OC and an i7 6700k, and for the games I play (basically rocket league and csgo sometimes which I get 200+ frames easily), its more than enough. I am upgrading to a 1070 around December though so keep that in mind. I do like ips, but I am currently leaning towards a Dell Gaming S2716DG 27 for the 144hz and gsync but I could get something like a rog swift monitor as well (im skeptical because of the awful QC though). On the other hand, I could get something like a 34 inch curve monitor or something like that, or two ips 60hz monitors or two 144hz tn panels, lots of options. My only issue with 1440p is that I want to make sure that when I am watching youtube, twitch, and anime that I dont have black bars on the side of the monitor, but I think they are all 16:9 except for the 34 inch monitors so I dont believe that will be a problem. Also, how blurry will 4k and 1440p look when watching something at 720/1080p? Thanks

Regarding the chair, I want something comfortable for prolonged use (5-8 hours when gaming/working) but I dont know what direction to go. I could get something like a dxracer/vertagear or a mesh chair. Room temperature is around 75 F (24C) so its not super warm but when playing games my room can go up in temperature quite a bit to around 78F (25-26C). I dont want anything too flashy, either solid black or black and white. Im 5'11 but I will be around 6 feet, and I want something without the weird curved edges on the seat, so something like the dxracer racing series. Im a wide person, not fat but broad shoulders (165 pounds). Thanks

The monitor(s) and chair need to be less than 1k together.
