Hi i would like to know what the best parts for a portable gaming pc that can handle most or all games at ultra in 1080p. 

I live in Sweden and my budget is 8000-9000kr (1000-1150$)

A monitor would be nice but is not required

would a cm storm scout 2 with a atx board work. or would it be to heavy ?

Will probably move it every week  

I have built in it before and for portability, the 380t the best you can get

Hot, poor performance compared to the 970 and older architecture

The 970 is more expensive and the R9 280 Dual-X is a great card and has an amazing performance.

amazing would be a overstatement but it is the best card for med-high specs and is a card most favourably picked when going for a more budget build.

 

Also Sweden is in Europe I hope americans have some degree of knowledge about where europe is and he would be better off if you would pick germany in the PCPP even if it is in Euro's it is probably more close to his prices.

 

@Aoubg where are you gonna order and what is the price in dollars for a I5-4690k or a EVGA GTX970 ACX2.0?

You still look dum to me as you have to directly result to insults and plus the fact that you use this stupid "m8". Sorry but it is just really useless if he states that he comes from a European country and people list american prices. Second yes it is a overstatement the 280 is a high-mid tier GPU not a high end GPU, it is really good for only 180-200 euro's but when one has more money it should be spend on a 290 but preferably 970.

I don't think PCPARTPICKER has a Sweden site, why do you think I gave him a build that still has 200+ to spend m8 why ?

 

It's will play all games on ultra at 1080p - just not ubishit titles- it's not an overstatement I would say you saying that the 970 is good is an overstatement because compared to the 980 it's worse you make no sense.

Yeah I also said he was better off when you used the german PCPP but well apparently you didn't read that.
