Smallest and Lightest Case.

[RyanW2050]

What is the smallest and lightest case I can fit all the stuff in my sig into?

I travel between 2 houses so i'm not sure if I can carry a light pc around or not.


I was thinking of doing a briefcase mod but i am afraid of not doing it right and wrecking something :slap:

[RyanW2050]

hmm, think this will work?

I like that clear briefcase thingy.... Ultra sharp looking, hard to keep clean though...

mmm a card board is the lightest case you can have

[Crankster]

Just bolt one together. A metal chassiss and some lucite.

If you don't already have a PCI-E card you could get a Agp MINI-ATX mobo and a pent M or if you have a PCI-E you could get a MINI-ATX mobo and put it with a 939

Because I want to play BF2, CS:S, Doom3, etc. :banana:

[nn_step]

in that case, get this mobo http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=241160
and put it in this case http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811190003
but you might need to swap out the powersupply.
But I am not sure it is powerfull enough for your 6800gt

The Antec Super Lanboy is an ATX case and weighs about 8lbs empty. Very sturdy (ive sat on it to test) and i weigh a modest 155lbs, it didnt crush :D.

i love mine, aweome case.

Make your own out of aluminum and acryllic not lucite. I'm making my own and its turning into a beast 16" x 16" x 26". :) Its gonna be great Im gonna make a lanning case as well I think...

[nn_step]

check post 14 wieght is just 32LBs for everything including case, PSU, graphics, CPU, coolers, Hard drive etc..
If that is too heavy for you your only option is a Via...

[n00b 0f l337]

Bah I dun like the lanboy.

[nn_step]

I didn't suggest a lanBoy..

[NickS]

Bah I dun like the lanboy.

:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: i think you meant 4-5

lol 20 pounds, jk

[nn_step]

no I mean 20LBS put it on a scale...
I always have an overkill powersupply...

[jinu117]

I suggest selling the components and get shuttle :) Problem solved :)

[illmatik]

lanboy is good case if you move back and forth. Good airflow, quiet, plenty of bays. Cant beat em when theyre on special for $40 @ compusa.

[MeltedDuron]

bah i prefer the original LanBoy to the Super LanBoy, they weigh next to nothing, and even come with a carrying strap... To bad they are discontinued *kicks self for trashing his LanBoy*

[NickS]

My Super LanBoy weighs 8.5lbs empty, comes with strap, and I think look better than the orig. lanboy.

They're definentally more thought out too, and use 120MM fan's instead of ghey 80's. They are also much better constructed and have better features. I reccomend you pick one up :)

[DamienKC]

I've been in the same problem as you. I was looking at http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811144161 until I realized it's ONLY micro-atx. They need to make a cube for none micro..it wont be tiny, but it wont be a full size desktop either.
