If you're lucky enough to have a space in your home that you can dedicate to gaming, you'll want to think through what goes into it. What games, what consoles? What colour controller are you going to get? If you're building a PC, you'll be thinking about your peripherals, your graphics card and monitor size, or even desk size. What often gets overlooked is a good chair. You're going to be spending dozens of hours sat at your desk, and you need those to be comfortable. The gaming-peripheral industry quite literally has your back. 

When looking for a gaming chair, you want to find one that fits all your needs. Plenty come with speakers and cupholders, but there'll be little comfort if you aren't sitting comfortably, so start with the basics and work up from there according to your tastes and budget.

Currently, the best value deal for gaming chairs in the UK is Vertagear's Racing Series SL2000, which is currently available for £149.99.
