How do I make this as healthy as absolutely possible?
My diet is already great.
My exercise regimen is already great.
I’ve already perfected my sitting posture, and have gathered that a mixture of sitting and standing gaming is best.
What I am seeking to know here is how often I should take a break from games and what should I do during said period (what staple, essential, dynamic stretches/exercises/whatever should I do to absolutely null all probability of me developing health problems that could potentially be tied to gaming?).

Do they actually work? Thet’re like $100 bucks. [/quote]
You can find deals online (ebay etc) for much less. Plus the costs depends on the type of frame you choose.
But yes, they do work. I thought it was a bunch of BS but was sold within 1 minute of putting them on. Now, half of the department at work wears them. If you are someone who games (PC or Console) and/or someone who’s job involves looking at a screen for hours on end, these will benefit you bigtime.

You should take a break after 90 minutes, and go read a book, ride a bike, lift some weights, volunteer at an animal or homeless shelter, go paddle boarding or kayaking, learn a foreign language, paint a room, babysit a niece or nephew, meditate, write a letter (on paper) to someone who’s impacted you positively, learn chess, come up with ideas for a part time business, walk your dog, develop short, medium, and long term goals, go outside and start a conversation with 5 strangers, ask a girl out (or a guy if that’s your thing), find 5 belongings to donate to charity, clean our your closet of anything you haven’t worn in the last year, etc.
