Hey everyone,

I've decided to build a mini-itx computer. The goal of the build is to be able to transfer the pc between 2 houses (which are 500m apart) whilst still having optimal gaming performance.

I've already collected the following components:

Motherboard: MSI Z87I GAMING AC
CPU: Intel i5 4460 (boxed)
GPU: Sapphire Radeon R9 380 4GB Nitro (it's 237mm long)
500 watt ATX PSU
8GB DDR3 RAM

The only thing I'm still looking for is a mini-itx case that can fit all this and is also portable. I've already looked at the corsair 380t but found it to be a bit too expensive, though it remains a possibility. I've also checked out the cooler master elite 130 but I read in a review that the standard fans of this case didn't fit in the MSI Z97I motherboard, which is probably very similar to my motherboard. Does anyone know a good mini-itx gaming case that is small enough to be carried around on a bicycle?

Thanks in advance!

The bitfenix prodigy m actually looks like a very good case indeed, but do you happen to know if the airflow is good enough? I've read some reviews stating that it was not flowing well due to the upside-down design.

I just noticed you recommended the prodigy m, wouldn't the regular prodigy be better?
