Im looking to have better back support and possibly alleviate some neck strain/pain I have whilst I game so I am trying to find some not overly priced gaming chairs and a screen mount I could combine so that I can have more of a resting back posture whilst gaming vs. sitting up

Chair
I was thinking of getting one of those x rocker chairs, the sport model which is about R599 - I’m not interested in the speakers and stuff on the chair, I game with a decent set of headphones. The chair would also allow me to move between my computer room and the lounge easily
Any other suggestions or inexpensive chairs I could look at?

Screen mount
This is where I’m looking for some guidance
Im looking for a mount which I can mount a 23 inch to 32 inch screen to where it is able to stand on the floor but have the screen at eye level and adjustable to go higher angled down
If I cannot find this at a decent price I’m probably looking to go down the DIY option: have someone fabricate a bracket and then just attached one of those monitor swivel mounts, which cost about 400 bucks, to it
Has anyone seen a mount like I have described?
And
Does anyone know where I JHB I could get a bracket like that fabricated (i am not exactly sure what type of business i'm looking for here, metal fabrication? Metal 3d printing?)
 
gaming chairs or anything that looks like a racing car seat are terrible

I'm using a Herman Miller Embody for just under a year and I can only rave about it, I can sit in it for hours and not feel any strain

I would seriously up that budget for the chair, its actually the most important decision in any setup since its your back that will eventually pay down the line.
 
Thanks guys, will look into that chair

Still looking for someone who may be able to possibly do that fabrication
