I'm not sure if it's available in other country's but Medion has decent Notebooks/Ultrabooks. Their gaming serie is actually the MSI GT70 serie with a lower build and hardware quality. Even though you've got enough waranty to cover those. I believe they are about 20-30% cheaper then a MSI GT70

In the last period of time I find myself listening to royalty free music. I've got a whole library due YouTube. And to be fair, some of them are really good. The one I'm listening right now is Two Steps From Hell.

You could also use the HD-PVR2 Gaming Edition. Just plug the HDMI-in on your laptop or desktop and plug your screen (either DVI or HDMI) to HDMI-out. Pretty usefull for livestreams as wel since you can get live feedback. I suggest to use dual screen so you can monitor the capture. It doesn't use your CPU or RAM or GPU since it has its own Hardware Decoder. As far I know it can record in 1080P aslong the source is 1080P.
