I want a small form factor PC that I can take to and from university with little hassle. Currently I have a laptop but gaming on a laptop sucks.

If I'm honest I only really play CS:S.

I was looking at ITX but from what I've seen you only get 2 PCI slots (if that) and I'd have to have a slim graphics card (rubbish) and a decent sound card. So it looks like mATX is the way forward.

I want to spend as little as possible, it just needs to be able to play CS:S at 1080p and maybe CS:GO at 1080p but not necessarily at the best settings when that comes out.

£600 budget, but I will push it if needs be. OS is not an issue. Also I have a Optical drive. I like the idea of the cube cases, but they seem quite expensive. I'm happy to go second hand.

Cheers.

Matx will be needed because I want a sound card as well as a graphics card. On ITX you will need a single slot gpu which aren't very good. dont worry about the sound card in the budget that's separate.
