So for a long time now i have been building my pc up and have been looking to get that beast massive computer. But due to a recent change of events i need a portable pc, to go between multiple places. Now i have been looking into this for a long time now, and i have come up with some conclusions; First:Portable PCs are all about the case and allot of thought goes into that, Second: Finding parts that will still get the job done with out too much compromise.] and lastly, Third: Chose Micro ATX or Mini ITX. So through my research i have come up with two options based of two cases and two different sized motherboards, Mini ITX and Micro ATX. But the thing is that i'm not quite sure i have found everything yet or have seen all combinations. So that is why i have come here today to ask for help and thoughts on my ideas and findings:

 

ITX Build:

-CASE: Silverstone Sugo SG13B Mini ITX Tower Case

-CPU: i7 6700K

-GPU: Titan X

-Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4-2133 16gb

A Nano is going to get you better performace per dollar as well as let you get a smaller case

The cooler should fit as there was a Seidon fitting in the video

I also threw in a 4k IPS free-sync display

And the PSU is 160mm I believe

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

I would recommend the mATX one, as it is a lot easier to work with (and that SSD is amazing). Also, switch out the Titan for a 980Ti, it's cheaper and performs around the same.

Welcome btw.

I was thinking the same thing about the size, i have big hands and the extra room would help.

And yes that is true, i forgot about that.
