There are lots, like what @Legolessed linked you to.

There's also the NCase, EVGA Hadron, Thermaltake Core V1, Node 304...

None of them are that backpack friendly though. I think a laptop is a better choice.

A laptop would probably be better suited for this task. If you give me a budget i can find one for you thats very thin and can cool itself well. What are you planning to use this for by the way?

I have already looked at laptops and they suck, this build needs to last me 5+ years(I'll upgrade the gpu later on though since they die relatively quick) and laptops don't last very long, on top of that I already have a laptop I got a couple of months ago and I'd hate to get a new one. Im not gonna be travelling everyday with it or anything but I need to be able to take it with me if I have to go to a friends place or something

I'm using this to fame by the way so it needs to be able to fit a gtx 1070

The rvz01/rvz02 cases are pretty small, and will fit gpus up to 13 inches long and are not much bigger then a console.

 

 •E5-2670 @2.7GHz • Intel DX79SI • EVGA 970 SSC• GSkill Sniper 8Gb ddr3 • Corsair Spec 02 • Corsair RM750 • HyperX 120Gb SSD • Hitachi 2Tb HDD •

I can learn

Sorry but this just wont happen, to get to the point where you can accurately scale, model and compress a 3D Model together that is fit enough to be sent to a company to be made will take you months, maybe evens years. It's just not practical unless you already have the skills and are able to fabricate the case yourself. There are some nice small cases linked above.

 | CPU: AMD FX 8350 + H100i | GPU: AMD R9 290X + NZXT Kraken | RAM: HyperX Beast 2033 16GB | PSU: EVGA G2 | MOBO: ASRock 970M |

| CASE: Corsair Carbide 88R |STORAGE: 1x WD Black | KEYBOARD: Corsair K70 | MOUSE: R.A.T 9 |

SOMETIMES LOSING THE BATTLE, MEANS YOU CAN WIN THE WAR
