Well the case can be changed out but I haven't really came across anything else with the same build quality or compact size that fits the bill. Ill definitely look into the 660p SSD and the faster RAM. Its not much price difference to jump up to 3000 on speed, Ill probably go with a single stick 16gb then go for a second one later. The price point im aiming for is minimal out of pocket "after" selling my old setup. I could also just get a cheap case to get the build done and then swap out for the case I want later when I need travel.

Hello! I am looking at building a new Mini-ITX gaming system. Trying to keep it somewhat portable while keeping thermals down without actually going liquid cooling in order to be able to transport as my carry-on luggage when I travel. I am upgrading from my current system which isn't ideal or as powerful as I want. From what I have researched this new build should definitely out-perform my current setup. Any insight or help would be greatly appreciated!!!

I helped my brother build his PC but it was in a full size ATX Tower and he bought a Micro ATX MB without knowing but we managed to make it work.
