Asus teams with Secretlab to create slick ROG gaming chairs

From CNET: Asus' Republic of Gamers PC series is all about big flashy lights, insane specs and crazy designs.

Now, for its tenth anniversary, Asus wants to bring the ROG brand from your computer to your...chair.

The company is tying up with Singapore-based gaming chair maker Secretlab to release a set of ROG themed gaming chairs, or thrones as gamers like to call them, so you can quest hard while also receiving lumbar support.

The video game industry is bigger than ever, estimated by Newzoo to be worth over $90 billion. As part of gaming's explosion, accessories like chairs, controllers, headphones and keyboards are becoming more popular. Sales of periphery products like these led Razer to become a billion dollar company, and give companies like Mad Catz hundreds of millions in revenue each year.

ROG's signature red and black aesthetic is featured prominently, with the logo making an appearance on the back and front. The chair itself is a variant of the company's Throne V2, co-founder Alaric Choo says.
