NOTE: Since I can't find suitable forum for my answers and I don't want to ask two questions seperately, I decided to choose this forum. If this is the wrong forum please tell me.

NOTE: MONEY IS NOT AN ISSUE HERE.

I picked the parts for my future build yesterday: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/ngbeslhang/saved/WkpmP6

But I got two questions for this build.

1. The case. Since I frequently travelling, I would like the case to be compact enough that I can put it into a backpack/bag/small luggage, while there will have some space for my keyboard, mouse (etc) and some clothings.I MUST can install all the bare parts I've picked already.

Here's the bare parts: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/ngbeslhang/saved/M7tKHx

NOTE: You may choose the following parts:
Case
Bag/backpack/luggage, for luggage please choose the small ones.
CPU Cooler
Power Supply

2. The GPU setup. I'd like to use my pc for gaming, music production and 3D CAD (which I'll learn in future to make 3D games). Will my current setup be okay for 3D CAD? If no, which secondary card should I choose for 3D CAD?

Remember, money is not an issue.

Thanks.

You are not going to find a case that supports ATX mobo, Two 780ti, and two HDD that will fit into any type of bag. The smallest ATX cases are 20" by 20" by 8" and with all of those parts in there would weigh over 40lb

So what if I keep my PC inside a luggage? I found many suitable luggages for both the Source 210 Elite case and my requirement(able to put other things into the luggage while the PC was inside it).

Yes I guess that some big luggage cases or rolling duffle bags could transport a system like that. You would want to remove your GPUs during any type of transport to avoid damage and possibly your HDDs as well. Here is an excellent video that might give you good perspective on portable systems.
