https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zv-mhycc3us Conclusion : the Asus is a bit better because it doesn't have the fan noise that the X35 has. (He also doesn't mention the built in head phone dac on Asus). Annoyingly he says unless there's a big price difference by a couple of hundred dollars, buy the Asus. There's a fricking 600 quid price difference between the 2 currently here! Very very annoying, I want the Asus, at the current X35 price damn it. |

Really? I find it absolutely awful. Giant big hard thing with very little support or ways to customise. I'll never buy a gaming chair again.

Gamers Nexus did a good video on 'gaming' chairs. The short version is, they all get made in the same factories in China and are all about looks rather than ergonomics. They conclude that the vast majority of them are cheap, nasty and bad for you.

They do recommend some decent office chairs at the end, though not sure if you'll be able to source in the UK as they are very US centric. -

Registered 12 years ago@Technoishmatt how much did you research? I've grown to hate spending my life researching and reading reviews... I want to just trust you and buy this one lol. Did you find any decent sites that recommend it? It certainly looks bloody nice. -

Registered 12 years agoI just got a stock notificaiton for a 3090 at overclockers, clicked the link and it was 2400 quid. I thought sod that, came back 5 minutes later and they were sold out.
People are nuts paying these prices -
Yeah my card that I 'hand wrought' over paying 900 for is now going for 1200 and even as far as 1750 on eBay.
