So on August first im spending a semester abroad in Israel, i want to take my desktop PC w/me so that i still play games with my friends back home. Only problem is shipping. Right now i figure i have 3 options:
Ship it UPS: Really expensive but really easy
Take it apart and rebuild it: Kinda Simple, but really big hassle
Re-Case it in a much more portable case.
The PC is currently housed in an NZXT Apollo with a 600Watt PSU
AMD x2 4200
Nvidia 7900gt with an aftermarket fan
2HD's
Gigabyte S5 Mobo
1g of DDR2 Ram
Unless there is some special way to Ship PC's that cheap and easy that im not aware of i figure that re casing the PC is my best option. So now i have three questions:
1) What is the best and smallest case for my parts (keeping in mind that it will need to go in a suitcase of some sort.
2) What is the best Mobo for my parts
3) Do i need a new PSU? and will cooling be an issue?
