I have a 5.1 surround system which I use for desk use and home theatre. When I switch to my theatre layout I move the front two and centre speakers, This means while I am at my desk I hear the back two 5.1 speakers both on my right. Is there a way to have two play back devices one containing the full set up and one ignoring the rear two speakers. (Or just a quick way to disable the rear speakers while I'm at my desk?) Thanks, tl,dr Looking for a way to quickly switch between pc speaker layout and surround layout both containing the same core speakers.

Hey, couldn't find it anywhere so thought I'd ask here. If my monitor has a usb port can I connect a ssd or HD through it connecting to my PC? Trying to create a single cable set up. Thanks!

Do a pc build where every component costs the same(ish) amount (say $100) and see how it performs (inc. cast, mobo, cpu + accessories and monitor). Be a good laugh and probably low effort as I imagine you'll have most of the stuff already. Plus could talk about getting stuff second hand.
