Desk chair is only half of it. I bought an Aeron a few years ago and was never totally satisfied with it. Then I bought a standing desk and was slightly more satisfied but still something was wrong. Then I bought a monitor arm. Boom, suddenly everything clicked.
Ergonomics depends on the right distance from seat to floor, from arms to floor and from eyes to floor. A good chair solves the first, a good adjustable desk solves the second and a good monitor arm solves the third. If you only solve one, you won't be comfortable. Especially if you're tall, you'll realize that most default setups are not built for people above 6 feet. Without my monitor arm, I was always craning downward to look at my screen. Without my desk my legs wouldn't fit underneath and my wrists were always angled downwards.
