Among the top gaming chairs, you will find models that not only prioritize comfort, but also provide excellent body support to keep you feeling refreshed even during extended gaming sessions. While we’ve seen various innovations in design, materials, and reclining mechanisms, Cougar’s NxSys Aero gaming chair truly stands out and deserves recognition.
Featuring a 200mm RGB fan integrated into the back of the chair, it is the first such product in its category. The innovative thermoplastic mesh and ventilated back cover work in conjunction with the fan to promote optimal airflow throughout the chair, effectively cooling the user’s back. The company says the hollow area between the mesh and the specially ventilated back cover acts as adaptive cushioning, creating a “floating on air” sensation.
It also includes a lumbar pillow designed according to physiotherapy standards, as well as a magnetic head cushion to ensure proper positioning and optimal support. Additionally, the chair features a contoured seat with high-quality PVC leather and high-density foam that provides ample support and cushioning in a generous seating area.
The chair has built-in switches for convenient control over both fan speed and RGB lighting. Specifically, the fan draws power from a power bank hidden within the chair, eliminating the need for messy wires.
It’s worth mentioning that this gaming chair isn’t the only option with an active cooling solution. For example, Thermaltake’s X Comfort Air includes four integrated cooling fans in the seat to provide cooling for the lower body. Although this sounds quite interesting, I would love to have an air pillow for my back, especially in the summer season.
The Cougar Nxsys Aero is set to hit the market in mid-October, with pricing starting at $400. It will be offered in two color variants, Orange Black and Black, and will be available for purchase on Amazon and Newegg.
