Any one know what a good monitor is? Looking for 23-24 inches around $150. I plan to buy either 2 or 3 so if they don't have much side margin area's that would be great. Saw some dells at bestbuy but want to shop around more. Acer was to dark for me on max settings. Thinking of maybe asus.

Also I just want to know what you guys think might be a good chair. Must have a headrest or tall enough for me to lay my head back on. (I'm 6'2") Are the racecar chairs comfortable? I seen some that look like DXRacers but cheaper.

Depends a lot on what games you play, or how you will USE the monitor(s).

That's exactly the same chair I was looking at. Does it lean back or just recline?

Also, Currently I only play MMO's and BO3 but I do want to play more FPS

Do you want a proper ergonomic chair or a children's racing type chair? Budget?

As long as it's comfortable and can lean back not recline back unless it does both. On the chair I don't have an exact budget cause I have no idea what would be a decent price. I could spend upwards to $500 or more just depends how I feel about it. So for budget sake lets just say 500.

I got NFSUSA office comfort XL. Spent close to 550$, but it's probably the best chair I've had in a while.

Saving for an embody now.
