Gamer chairs are a silly fad and the same goes for those trying to be office chairs, while looking like gamer chairs.

A good chair lets you move around a little, so chairs with bolstering meant to keep you in place has no place at a desk. Such bolstering makes sense in a race car, but there you need support to stay in place in front of the wheel and even the most exciting game doesn't inflict g-forces on you.

It may be that you can find a gaming chair which feels comfortable, but in the long run not being able to alter how you sit for hours is not healthy. So don't fall for the fad. Get a good office chair instead and note that good doesn't equal expensive, the expensive ones may be slightly better but mostly it is longevity and design that make them costly.

Also, while we are at it. A desk that lets you raise it up to standing height is a good thing also, it allows you to not sit all the time - there is a reason such desks are becoming the standard in offices (and it is very easy to get at the computer under the desk if needed).
