    Audio

    Mine does it by default, but the headset I use is USB. I do notice that some games and mumble seem to not automatically switch. Basically, I have just gotten used to going into the playback and recording devices settings and picking which one I want. It gives you a lot of options such as to use the headset microphone, but computer speakers.
  2. I have 128 Gb ADATA SX300 SSD in the mSATA connection. Best upgrade ever... although I'm not going to lie, it was quite difficult to get a fresh install of Windows up and running. I had to find a OEM version of Windows 8 and burn it to a cd; then it worked. Results from AS SSD Benchmark are 455 read and 126 write... not the best on the write, but I didn't get the best drive either.
  3. I had a 60ish gb one and had to replace it after installing a couple of games and a few programs. As you've seen in the other posts, the OS will take up a bit, and to me it is not good to run 80%+ full on any drive much less a SSD.

    Monitors

    I have a QNIX panel which is really the same as the Crossover one mentioned above. Green-sum on ebay is the seller to get it from. The shipping time is amazing considering it's coming from Korea, and they test each monitor to be sure they meet a minimum quality standard. One of the other cool things is that you can overclock the refresh rate... so if your graphics card(s) can keep up, you should be able to get 90 to 120Hz depending on your luck. Not bod at all for a $300 27" WQHD panel.
  5. just to throw in my $.02 ... it may not be what you were wanting to spend, but you can get a new Lenovo y500 that has dual video cards (sli) for about $1000. I just ran 3dmark Vantage and got P13833 (Graphics: 12427, CPU: 20939). I'm quite happy with it so far.
