You don't need thousands of dollars to create an awesome gaming setup. With smart choices, you can build a station that looks great and performs even better.
The Chair: Comfort is King
Don't blow your budget on a flashy racing chair. Look for ergonomic office chairs that verify proper lumbar support. Your back will thank you during long gaming sessions.
Lighting: Ambient vs RG
A simple LED strip behind your monitor reduces eye strain and adds that "gamer" aesthetic for under $20. You don't need everything to be RGB synchronized.
