Hi there
So I'm entering (If all continues to go smoothly) the Canadian Navy and I am wondering what the absolute lightest, most compact build possible as I needless to say, won't have the room I do now for my NZXT S340, Gaming 7 Mobo, etc. The only things I want to keep are my 6600K CPU and 970 EVGA SC GPU. Can someone do this to give me an idea if it's really a logical decision? Because the alternative is a gaming laptop, and I'd prefer it not to come to that!
this is my build as of now if it helps any: https://pcpartpicker.com/b/hyGfrH

A laptop is the best solution.

Yes, a laptop is a poor second to a desktop. But over the next couple of years, you will be moving around a LOT.
Any desktop you can build will be 'larger' than a laptop, once you have all the parts together.

Oh I know it will be bigger. And after training is done, I really shouldnt be moving around much. You'll understand once you too learn that Canada has exactly two naval bases. One for each coast. So training and a majority of your career is generally spent at a single one of the two. I just don't like the entirety of gaming laptops, from the price they molest you for and give you mediocre performance in return via mobile GPU's, the little non mechanical keyboard, the little screen thats too far down on the table, etc.
