Acer's $ 14,000 Predator Thronos Air gaming chair is ready to take control of your living room

Acer unveiled its crazy Thronos gaming chair at IFA last year and returns this year with a less motorized version. The Predator Thronos Air, which looks like a Mac Air, was designed to be a bit more affordable than the original $ 20,000 model. It drops the arm of the automatic motorized monitor to the benefit of a manually adjustable arm, but it retains the same giant steel structure that supports up to three screens to wrap you in this game chair.

The changes bring the price back to $ 13,999, which still represents an incredible amount to spend on a gaming chair, but the lack of motorization makes it slightly less crazy than last year's model. The desk that comes with the chair always has an adjustable keyboard and mouse tray that will not automatically turn on and a footrest to keep your feet elevated.

You will still need to equip this equipment with three monitors, a gaming PC and a webcam above the central monitor to show the world that you have paid close to $ 20,000 for this complete installation.
