    Default mATX Build Advice

    Hey Guys,
    Looking for some advice for a more mobile PC for my away office when I'm not home.
    Currently my laptop has an i7-2630QM (2.0Ghz) , 4 GB Ram, Radeon 6570M 1.0 GB gpu. Not good enough to 5 box with.

    Can anyone recommend a good mATX motherboard and a Small Form Factor case that has good air flow? Thanks.

    I went the SFF route once, avoid it like the plague for gaming.
    The poetry that comes from the squaring off between,
    And the circling is worth it,
    Finding beauty in the
    dissonance

    Generally speaking, the problem with a SFF setup is there won't be space/power for a decent graphics card.
    I would suggest getting a better gaming laptop
    .

    I have found some of the newer cases will support up to 9", but I agree even then they are cramped.
    Leaning more towards the laptop, thanks for the laptop links. Gonna take a look through them.
