BUBM Desktop PC Computer Travel Storage Carrying Case Bag for Computer Main Processor Case, Monitor, Keyboard and Accessories

Product Information

Okay, we'll admit it. There are very few legitimate reasons to carry around a full-size desktop tower that don't involve video games. So these desktop carrying cases are basically designed for LAN parties. But with online matchmaking often available for free, are LAN parties even still a thing? The answer is a resounding yes. The RexGear 2 from Nanoxia is an exciting addition to this lineup, and a great model to end our comparison on. Another mATX case, this one has a very cool aesthetic look compared to many of the options on this list. This model makes use of an “X” theme that you can very clearly see inspired many of the design choices on the unit.

There are a lot of things to consider when looking at portable desktop computers. Since desktops are designed to be relatively stationary, those intended for portability aren’t as common, for one. Secondly, they will always be less portable than a laptop due to the separate nature of the monitor, keyboard, and mouse.Its exterior is made from 900D nylon and its SBS seamless zippers can handle near endless abuse. If you need a no-nonsense desktop carrying case, it’s hard to go wrong with a bag specifically built for such a purpose. The only thing that would make it perfect is if it was a bit more waterproof. Still, you aren’t paying for roller wheels when you buy a Pelican case. You’re paying for the unparalleled protection it offers from impact and water. You’re buying it because your PC should be able to go with you anywhere. If you’re still not convinced, you can get more information from a young LinusTechTips in the video below. This LAN bag has all the most important features of a high-quality travel bag plus the outrageous dimensions to hold even the most massive PC towers. The biggest shortcoming of this bag is that neither its carry handle nor its shoulder strap are padded enough, so it is kind of uncomfortable to carry. This does contribute to the fact that this bag only weighs 2.9 pounds, but if the safety of your gaming rig is on the line, it may be worth spending a little more for extra protection. The bag is made from durable nylon material, but it is only partially water-resistant, not waterproof like other options. While there are similarities between the carriage of a PC tower and the other components that come with computing, sometimes the needs and capabilities to do so are different. When these differences are significant enough, this guide will highlight those differences. Materials — Inside & Out

This case from Lian Li is also the only ITX case in this lineup. While ITX cases usually require some sort of compromise on the size of your PC components, the shape of this unit is relatively boxy and square, making it easier to find parts that fit the build well.While the GearGrip Pro isn’t technically a LAN bag fit for air travel, it is a lightweight solution for hauling your desktop tower while at a friend’s house or local LAN venue. If you have no other choice but to use a desktop, you prefer a desktop for any reason, or you move your computer infrequently (but still frequently enough to warrant a measure of portability), a smaller PC case equipped with handles bridges this gap exceptionally well.

That being said, the handles on this unit are placed interestingly. There are a total of four handles on this unit instead of the usual one or two, and each one is placed at a corner. This means that, when your case is stationary, it will be resting on two of these handles – they form the base “stand” of the unit. The only flaw to remember is that the side window on this case is quite small, and it’s made of plastic instead of glass. As such, if you’re looking to show off the internal components of your portable PC, this might not be the greatest option for you. Conclusion A recent study from Quantic Foundry reveals that local multiplayer is the most consistently appealing mode of gaming for a wide majority of gamers.

Are LAN Parties Still a Thing?

Firstly, the Cooler Master Q300P seems to be the absolute winner in terms of all-around effectiveness. It’s a great compromise between modern features, portability, size, and price. What’s more, it comes with RGB LEDs to get your build started off on the right foot, too! To be even safer, you should open up your PC and manually tighten all expansion card connections before taking your rig on a journey.

However, this is unfortunately, where the trouble comes in. While it’s roomy, that also means it’ll be heavier and more challenging to move when you need to. But this may be a worthy trade-off for those who are willing to sacrifice a bit of portability for a bit extra performance. We’re okay with this mixed cushioning for the price, though, especially since there is a much more limited selection of computer carrying cases sized for machines with Mini-ITX motherboards. This bag’s main compartment expands to 24 x 24 x 12 inches in size and has tie-down straps inside to prevent your tower from shifting around in transit. Exterior compression straps further prevent any interior jostling. The main compartment isn’t verily heavily padded right out the box, but it ships with a zippered padded cube insert for this main compartment to use when a device needs extra padding. Note that this padded lining does take up about an inch in all directions.Lightweight and Portable: At only 400 g, it is easy to transport and store when traveling or not in use. While laptops are convenient to use and easy to transport, there are certain functions like video editing, 3D rendering, and, of course, gaming that can require the raw power of a desktop. But how can one expect to travel with a desktop in a reasonable manner? Secondly, it’s clear that the Nanoxia RexGear 2 is the best budget option. At almost half of most of the cases in this lineup, the RexGear 2 is unbelievably inexpensive. If you’re willing to put up with a case that’s a bit less modern than the Q300P, this is an excellent option. On the other hand, anything ATX and smaller is reasonably easy to transport and move around. Of course, the smaller you go, the more portable your PC will be too. The interiors are typically made up of nylon, a lightweight but strong material that is often used in luggage. Nylon is non-conductive, so it is often used in electronics products but can have some static issues. As a result, users may wish to carry their hard drives in a special carrying case.
