Hey, guys not be on here in a while, got rather caught up in social sciences and have gotten myself into university!! (Stirling, 2014)....

However after booking halls I have realized my PC Tower is not going to be suitable for university!! I plan to sell up and buy a gaming laptop, unlike my original plan of buying a MAC and having my pc for gaming. So I need a replacement which can handle my needs of gaming and lightweight so I can carry it about probably 15"

So I would like some advise

Why is your tower not suitable for halls?

Ahh ok, is it possible to post in the price check section without members market access?

Because my room is really tiny, unfortunately the desk is too small for my set-up so i've decided to change things about which might be fun and transporting a tower system is no fun either !!!

Unfortunately not

Edit: you could keep the main components and only change the motherboard and case to itx versions or look at the Bitfenix Phantom which can take al the items.

(I have not looked at the dimensions between the two case)

or go for an msi gs60 which is nice and slim. Could still kick ass in most modern games.

Or get a cheap ultrabook for lectures and install it into a mitx or matx case

The case is currently an Micro case

but on top of room space I'm pretty set on changing to a laptop so when I travel home (By train then boat) I can keep gaming!! Cheer for the suggestion though!

The Phantom might of been a smaller Matx Case compared with the Corsair
