u mean like... a case that will fit ur entire case and monitor? if u still have the box u got ur case in then that works great for the pc but monitor wont fit too. ive seen like this carring handle thing a while ago thats like straps around your case so you can carry it by a handle but that was a while ago.

The monitor's the tough part. If you're handy you could make one out of plywood. What I have in mind is a enclosed box for the tower, and a pocket on the side for the monitor. The monitor would slide into the pocket tongue and groove style, and should keep it protected well enough for carrying.

Antec sold a carrying bag (straps with pockets) for gaming PCs. I have a couple of them.

I had adapted an old MacPlus carry bag, which worked well, til some cats decided to show who really owned it.

i had to ship some systems to Canada via airline.

i put a piece of plywood over the LCD monitor; that went in a briefcase.
and got there in one piece. of course i had to take off the pedestal, so.

overall it sounds like a good job for a suitcase. e.g. a softbody suitcase
with a few pillows, or a hardbody suitcase that is just plain bigger than
the desktop case.

for some hardware i save the original shipping box for just this reason.
tie a rope around & fashion a handle & you're done.

Take a look at standard luggage, and then fit one of the right size with foam blocks. Another option is a carrying strap. Those I have seen.

Strap

If the monitor is LCD, find a piece of luggage that it will fit in with foam blocks. That can also hold you cables and accessories.

If price is not a limiter - you might go this route:

Case

Maybe this for the case. I think I've seen others that had something on the side for monitors as well.
