ASUS ROG Destrier Ergo review: The Sci-Fi ergonomic chair!

Even though I’ve been using gaming chairs for years, I’m not generally too fond of them. That’s because some of their features, like lumbar and neck support, are usually poorly designed and don’t really help in improving your health and posture.
