Briefcase PC (WIP)

So been planing the PC build since July time and finally got the money and tools.

The idea behind this case is for LAN events, as I have got kinda annoyed of lugging my PC in separate bits (Keyboard, monitor, mouse, system, headphones) to LAN.

I have set it up with the basics for now to get it running and will add additional components/modifications over time.

Right now just asking for some feedback from you guys and to help give suggestions.

System:

Core i5 4th Gen 3.5 gHZ

AMD r7770 fx 2gb (Upgrading)

PSU 550 Watt +80 gold plus 

SanDisk 60GB SSD

Asus asus h87m-plus

D-link 300 wireless nano adapter

Logitech Wireless keyboard/Track-pad

(Pieces of the case where taken from an old case that I used)

 

EDIT: New photos of how I'm thinking on attaching the monitor and a little bit of air cooling (Still thinking it through :S)

Pretty much the idea man :)

depending on what GPU you upgrade to, 550W may not cut it.

Awesome! Have seen a brief case pc on pcpartpicker before, but it is awesome to see that the amount of people that makes their own cases is growing every day.

Its fun doing it as well, and more simple then a lot of people think (Just need the tools and the know how) :)

Hmmmm back to the 760 then 

The PSU can handle a GTX 970. Gigabyte's small Mini ITX version from the 970 may be a good option?

You can run a GTX 780 easily with a 500w unit. If OP does not OC too much and the CPU is not the FX-9590 ;)

true. 600W is just the recommended. And where is the fun in a good GPU if you dont OC? :D
