Need suggestions on buying a portable case

[Xenaki]

I plan on building a new machine soon, a amd64 3200+ s939 with a msi k8n neo 2 plat. Ive always gone with full towers before, but they become a pain when you want to bring them over to a friends house for some gaming. So ive been thinking about getting a smaller portable case for my new setup, but i dont know anything about smaller portable cases.

if anyone can give any suggestions on what to get, it would be greatly appreciated. Im specfically looking for one that has a handle on the top of the case.

Look into the ANTEC SuperLANBoy

If you could find a microATX mobo that you could live with, you would be ahead of the game and could use something like the Silverstone Mini Berserker - GD98-LED - ( http://www.gameve.com ).

Tt Lanfire. Decent tower that doesn't weigh much and doesn't look like its pregnant (lanboy just looks like it is to me).

Check out the egg too.



P.S.. Tt sells straps for cases at about 20$ a pop but they also carry your keyboard and mice(s) 🙂

Super Lanboy

I got the Super LAN Boy from Directron. Very happy with it. Very small for being able to handle a normal ATX motherboard, very quiet, very lightweight, front audio handy for LAN gaming (though mine was reverse wired R-L). Comes with carrying straps. I've had an aluminum case with same chassis as the original LAN Boy (Zap's review: "Antec LAN BOY / Chenming ATX-301 Aluminum, separated at birth?") and I like the Super LAN Boy better, though the original one is lighter by a few grams.
