    Default Full atx mobo and large gpu in a portable case

    So most of you know of the gaming rig I made last year.....kinda doesn't get much use with me working offshore and with the little one taking up most of my time

    Looking to transfer all the components into a cube atx case and just seeing if you guys knew of any that might fit a full size atx and gpu....so that I can take it to sea with me...I guess it would also have to accommodate a full size power supply too

    ATX is the form factor so if you look at the types of cases you want and then check the spec of ATX and you can ignore MATX/Micro ATX, ITX etc. Any ATX case should fit an ATX mobo and the spec of each case should let you know about GPU/PSU. I had a quick look at the "compact cases" section on Scan and didn't see anything but I don't have any time right now to look elsewhere.

    If I remember correctly, you can weld? If so, have you thought about cutting a few pieces of a normal case (back panel and motherboard tray), and making your own custom enclosure?

    Have you looked at the Silverstone Raven RVZ02 case?
    For a few quid more you can get one based on the same design, but with a carry handle.

    unfortunately that case only supports mini-itx motherboards, not a full ATX

    I tried to do to do this a few years ago and it turned out to be a fruitless task. Get a small form factor mobo for your cpu/ram and go from there, itll cost a bit more but it'll be so much more of what you want it to be. Assuming your graphics card aint huge but there are options for that too.
