What computer chair does /g/ use?
Mine is cheap and I often have a bad back, I'd like something new which would hopefully help with back pains.
Any recommendations?
Are DXracers any good or just a gimmick? I wouldn't want to spend more than the cost of one of those.

love my dx racer chair, it matches my race car bed and BIOSTAR motherboard

DX racers are a meme. Twitch streamers are paid to use them.

Hard to argue against dxracer if you are willing to buy sight unseen, I personally can not bring myself to buy a chair I have never used irl.
Also don't like the way the arms work or the bucket seat, but that's because I can't sit still to save my life and need the arm rests to ahve hold in them for a knee to pop out.

>back pains
This should be your main concern.
I used to be a fat fuck, then I lost a hundred pounds. Still had awful back pain. Got permission to choose a new chair for work with a budget of $800. Got a Steelcase Leap. Bought one for home a few days later for $280. No pain. Tried my cousin's DXracer. Let him try my chair, he's got a similar one now.
Look for a local used office supply wholesaler and try out some chairs. Steelcase, Herman Miller, Humanscale, Knoll are the top brands. Do not buy a chair without testing it.
Bought new, most good chairs are close to $1,000. However, $200 can go incredibly far when picking up a used task/office chair locally, $300 if you have to have it shipped. Chairs like the Steelcase Leap, Humanscale Freedom, or Herman Millar Aeron are designed to be used for full shifts. Way more adjustability than any 'racing' chair.
A chair is something you'll use for potentially tens of thousands of hours. You've only got one back.
Here's one method of thought: would I want to buy a new $15,000 car, or spend $15,000 on a 5 year old car that was worth $50,000 that will go another 15 years?

Forgot to mention this:
When you're trying a chair out, don't just look for how 'cushy' it is. Look for a chair based on whether or not your pain eases up once you've adjusted it and sat for a few minutes.
An overly padded chair is not guaranteed to feel good for more than a few hours. There is supposed to be a resistance in the seat and back, you're not meant to just float there. You want a padded panel supporting your back, you want a ledge supporting your legs. Rely on the back rest.
