All right, hmm... Where to start... Okay, so I am a US soldier in the reserves who is going active duty, and I'm also an avid gamer. My laptop is just too weak to handle the kind of power my desktop has. I would like to make my PC into something more portable -as I am always on the run- did some research; found out about briefcase PC's (DIY). I've seen builds, but it seems like most of them are unique. I really have no idea what I'm doing in this area, and I need some help. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Unfortunately, I don't really have the money at this time to buy much, so parts on hand will, hopefully, have to suffice. At the same time, I can afford to buy screws and the like.
This is the case I was thinking of: http://www.overstock.com/Luggage-Bags/Copa-Aluminum-Silver-5-inch-Attache-Case/4819470/product.html?refccid=MYYCCCJ6XXMJBXSNHWFHSOLODU&searchidx=7
Here are the juicy, beefy parts to my desktop: http://imgur.com/K5VgmEB

I find it's best to ask people that have a better idea of what they're doing before you start a project. I've soldered maybe twice in my life, and making precise cuts just isn't my thing. I wouldn't be lugging this thing around everyday so it's not like I need everything to be extremely accessible, however, I would like a nice, seamless look where all I have to do is maybe pull out a power plug, and a keyboard.
If you have any other suggestions as for, just at least moving my PC around SAFELY, I would greatly appreciate it.
