New setup

[Prometheois117]

So, I'm getting a new gaming setup, and I wanted to ask your opinion.

Is this a good deal for a computer? I know I have to build it myself, and I know how to.
Since PC Part Picker is blocked, the specs are:


AMD FX-8350 4.0GHz 8-Core Processor
ASRock 970 Extreme3 R2.0 ATX AM3+ Motherboard
Crucial Ballistix Sport 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Toshiba Q Series Pro 128GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Gigabyte Radeon R9 290 4GB WINDFORCE Video Card
Cooler Master Storm Enforcer ATX Mid Tower Case
SeaSonic S12II 620W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply
Asus DRW-24F1ST DVD/CD Writer

The total will be 996$.

I'm also thinking of getting a DXRacer chair, thoughts?

What headset should I get? The G35 from Logitech looks pretty good.

Get the Logitech G35
As of Dxracers, they are nice but they are too expensive imo, a couple of them were on sale last week from 530$ to 330$, dunno is they still are

I posted it here because tons of people browse here. In that section there's not nearly enough popularity for me to get my answer in quickly, mostly because I'm impatient af.

Care to provide an alternative? Currently I'm in a Herman Miller Aeron chair(https://www.hermanmiller.com/products...on-chairs.html the one they showcase)

It's quite comfortable, I was just looking for something else.

What the fuck is with you and expensive chairs, I'm talking about a $60 office chair that will last you for years, not some ergonomic piece of shit that costs $600.

They turn me on, obviously. I'm guessing by there isn't a set "good" chair maker. I'll just stick with mine then.

THE CHEAPEST HERMAN MILLER CHAIR IS FUCKING £550, HOW CAN YOU EVEN SUGGEST THAT HE BUY SUCH A THING? YOU COULD BUY A CAR FOR THAT AMOUNT OF MONEY, NOT A VERY GOOD ONE SURE BUT A FUCKING CAR.

You people are whack, I don't understand your thought process.

You're buying something you sit in everyday you sit in your pc chair alot more than your car alot more than most things in your house depending on what kind of person you are and you saying you won't cash out on an item you'll be using for most of the day ?

Yes the G35 is great I am getting it soon, when I get paid.
I could tell you once I get it how good it is?
