Hi, so I have been building computers for about 6 years now, in a bit of a casual way. I have always built ATX form factor computers, and am now looking to try a mini-ITX. I have done some research, and I decided that the mini-ITX towers are too big. I'm looking to build a rig that'll fit inside something this size:

OR
http://www.amazon.com/Antec-ISK110-VESA-Mini-ITX-Case/d...

So what I need help with is knowing what is the best/largest possible graphics card I can stuff in there. (if need be, I can be a bit boot-leg, and leave a side panel open so that the graphics card will have room) I am mostly looking to do this as a portable way to play counter strike global offensive. Yeah, so what I need is a mobo/gpu combo, and as I said I can open the side of the case. Also, if you can, help me out with the PSU. (price right now on the GPU isn't an issue, if I could fit a Titan in there, I would)
Thanks bros

It will be hard trying to fit a suitable GPU for gaming in one of those thin towers. You're looking at maybe the GT 740 or so.
