Well they got one thing right. The slogan "You'll want to sit down for this". Yup, you would. £350. Good thing I was sitting down or I'd have fallen over laughing.

In fact no, that's the skinny one. £399. lmfao.

In all fairness DXRacer make 1 called the tank and it's basically the same as this one, Same price and it is built like a tank.
 
If I were to spend anywhere even close to that sort of price I would go the whole hog and do it properly.

Or not bother at all.

You could argue that if you were paying £510 for a chair then you should buy something like a Steelseries Leap V2 or Herman Miller Aeron or Vertagear Triigger 350, which are chairs that are actually supposed to support long periods of sitting, both in comfort and health.

Yep. I'd get an actual chair. Not some gaming one.
 
I've had nothing but actual chairs for years. TBH? I would never define any of them as totally comfortable. Not like a big leather sofa hugging you comfortable. However, since switching to proper chairs (instead of gaming cack) I can say that I have had no bum aches, no back aches and my posture is forced well.

My last chair was a Herman Miller Sayl. I got it about a week old. Had it for a couple of years, then my ass got fatter (sodding pills) and so I got a Humanscale Freedom Headrest (£1200 worth of chair for £240, completely refurbed new cloth, painted the frame etc).

The biggest test of any chair ever made is the bum foam. Crap chairs will give out and you will be sitting on plastic/wood whatever. A real chair never changes in firmness and never gives out.

Because of that when I needed another chair I bought a refurb Steelcase Let's B for about £60. New cloth etc. Not as nice as the Humanscale (it's a bit looser) but I would take it over any crap gaming chair.

Going to shift it to my mother's soon and set up camp there.
 
No one can see the future, EA is a business like any other and they can be bought up, If MS did buy EA then this would be a huge blow to Sony as MS could if they wanted make all EA titles exclusive to Xbox.

As of right now EA are worth around 30 Billion dollars, MS is expected to close in on being worth around the 1 Trillion dollar mark by 2020, If MS wanted to they could easily snap them up, Will it happen ? Aint got a clue but it's business and anything can happen.
I can see the future, I went there next year and last month :D

I got a new chair for Xmas off the Mrs https://www.officefurnitureonline.co.uk/office-chairs/executive-leather-office-chairs/leather-office-chairs-less-than-100/turin-leather-manager-chair.html
comfy as :)
 

The ass foam will go. I've had about four chairs like that in the last 10 years, all have gone. One was actually lovely too, cream leather (real leather like). Cost me £200 back when, ass foam went. Ended up sitting on plywood.

I guess it's OK if you are very light (I wasn't heavy then, maybe 13 stone) and replace it every year or so. Problem is due to car accidents/being ran over as a kid/falling out of trees etc I can no longer sit in chairs like that. They are just not firm enough.

15 years ago? I could (and have) sat on a wooden box/the floor etc. But as I get older my body is giving me payback for wrecking it so bad.

That was the last chair I bought. That is what is going over my mother's for my secondary bolt hole gaming PC. It's actually really heavy and comfy.

MSI have released new AM4 BIOS for a large set of X370/B350 and A320 boards using AGESA 1.1.0.1 for Raven Ridge, says it helps with memory compatability as well so I'm going to flash mine and report back. Hopefully it may stop the Blue Screens when running my RAM at full speed

Have you set the RAM up manually and volted it all yourself? or just relying on AXMP?

I did both, same result every time.

New BIOS is on, got my RAM at full speed, just gonna run a few hours see what stability is like. Made no difference to POST time though

Welp, Blue Screens are still there. The moment I try and do anything RAM intensive I get one. Not exactly surprising considering it is brand new AGESA code but still annoying nonetheless
