Hi, I'm building a computer which I will use mainly for gaming. I'm aiming for the GTX 970 since it's in my priceclass and I'm looking at the i5-4690k as a processor. I realized a while ago that it would be really handy for me to have a mITX case since I want to be able to take my PC to friends and LAN parties. So if you guys could give me a good build with a small case that will remain cool and quiet that would be great. My budget is around 1200$.
Thank you.

I'm suggesting an alternative case, one I'm using in this thread:

Silverstone Milo ML07.

There's a configuration for a computer in the thread and this computer is intended to handle a GTX970 for about $1000.

It needs to have an upgraded GPU, CPU cooler, motherboard, and memory, if you want to overclock the the 4690K. In any situation, the photos there may be helpful.
