In my personal experience, it doesn't take much to make the difference between a computer setup that causes RSI versus one that doesn't. When I was using my Amiga 500 for a number of years, I started developing carpal tunnel symptoms in my teens. Switching to a detached keyboard that could actually be placed at the right height for my posture was thankfully enough to allow my body to recover.
In the past decade the best change I made is switching to a combination of a standing desk + kneeling chair + regular office chair. By switching between different positions, my body feels a heck of a lot better. The kneeling chair is particularly effective at forcing my body into a much better posture position, and is good from recovering when the other options start to irritate things.
