oh
Well that makes sense.
Also what are the cons of soundcards actually? Besides better audio quality?
Also^2 NZXT HUE+. Yah or nah?
Imo the only reason to get a soundcard is if you want to use a 500 dollar and up sound system and want better control over settings than what most motherboards offer.
Also the Hue+ I want but I refuse to buy from NZXT direct ever again. Last time 2 years ago I bought the Hue and it took 2 and a half weeks of business day processing time before I contacted them. They responded it will be a week or two more due to "inventory", I demanded my money back and got it from Microcenter that same night a half hour from my house.
To me I don't hate their products but as a company NZXT can go forget themselves with a stick wrapped in sandpaper.
which kind out of these (or others) do you suggest? i don't need one that big, just 250 or so gigabytes

Like I said before, the Hard Drive (HDD) needs to be upgraded, I did the same thing with my Y500 because it got unbearable eventually.
I would recommend getting higher than 250 GB especially since I know you draw, it will fill your storage quickly if you save locally or use Photoshop/Illustrator (Scratch-disks are a burden), if not and you really want low storage but fast speed.

Otherwise a better solution would be to get a much faster better HDD
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822236561I have one of these too, just haven't installed it to my Y500 yet, it'll do some vast improvements though.
TL;DR Get a SSD would be my first recommendation for best results, otherwise a HDD works. Also if you go SSD, get larger than 250 GB is a must IMO, SSD's come in many brands and Samsung isn't the only one you should look at.
