The Ultimate Mobile Case

Hi,

  So I'm looking for a pretty mobile pre-built case (no DIY please) to hold a standard ATX board, standard sized 600W PSU, 1 HDD, 1 ODD (not necessary), and a Hyper D92 heatsink. I've searched far and wide for something that's easy to move, (not too heavy, pretty portable, etc.), as well as small enough just to fit these things, and couldn't find anything. So please don't think I'm just being lazy and haven't done my research. I'm only posting here as a last resort. Any suggestions or advice would be great. Thanks!

I doubt that "ATX" and "Mobile" do not go together lol

The case I am about to recommend is definitely not small, but it has handles which makes moving it a heck of a lot easier. The Corsair Vengeance C70, the aesthetics will not appeal to everyone though.

Intel Core i7-5820K (4.4 GHz) | Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Gaming | Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB  | 2x 360mm Custom Loop (Noctua iPPC) | ASRock X99 Extreme6 | Samsung 840 EVO 250GB | Fractal Design Define S | Corsair HX750 | Windows 10 | Corsair M65 RGB PRO | Corsair K70 RGB LUX (CherryMX Brown) | Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro & Creative Sound Blaster Z | Nexus 6P (32GB Aluminium) | Check out my setup: Project Kalte Here!

If its about mobility, first thing that comes to my head is Corsair's Graphite 380T.
The BitFenix one would be next.

Processor : i7-6700k (stock speed)

Cooler : Hyper 212X

Motherboard: MSI Krait Gaming Z170

RAM : 4x4gb LPX Memory

Boot Device : Samsung 860 EVO

GPU : ZOTAC 1070 Extreme

PSU :Antec HCG-620M

Thanks for all this. I never would have found these on my own. Not in a position to upgrade from my current case right now but this will be good to know.
