Hello again everybody. I have found myself needing advice on another aspect of my pc.
My current build is:
I5 3570k with antec 620 cooler
Galaxy gtx 660 ti GC 3gb gpu
Asrock z77 extreme4 mobo
Kingston ssd now 120gb
Wd 1tb hdd
Bluray cd drive
900w psu
All in a nzxt phantom 530 full tower case
Now my question is regarding the title. I built this pc because I want a high end custom water looped upgradable gaming rig once I finish the build (above is current setup) so that is why I didn't buy laptop. My issue however is that my current living and work situation leaves me wanting to be able to tote around my pc back and forth between the two. Weekly basis is the frequency. All I need to transfer is pc, the setups I have in both places. What I am asking is first and foremost can this be done practically and relatively safely (I know pc's aren't built to be laptops and I know this is unusual question, regardless it is where I am at.) Also if I am expecting to much and this is just flat out not safe and unreasonable please tell me without offensive language.
The second question is, if this can be done practically (not disassembling everything) and safely (the pc won't get damaged and the gpu fittings won't get worn out from being taken out and put back in) how would you suggest I proceed?
Few things to keep in mind. First, if the disassembly/reassembly can be accomplish in less then fifteen minutes and it won't cost me money (reapplying thermal paste or similar every time) then I do not mind one bit. Second, what are real dangers, if there are any, of removing and reinserting gpu into motherboard this frequently. Third, this transport does not have to happen but would be ideal. Fourth, the drive is 45 minutes on the highway. Fifth, I would like to eventually install custom water loop, however address this issue regarding transport separately from current build. Finally, the last but most important thing to remember is the safety of my pc is utmost important and I do not want to cause damage that is preventable so please be honest with me if you respond.
Thanks so much to all who read,
Doc
P.S. I know this a long post but I would appreciate the most thorough and accurate response I can get so I want to provide the most thorough and accurate post I can give.
