I got a better power brick from lenovo it is a 200 watt brick.

runs cooler then my 135 watt brick.

My little pc is really nice.

Cost was 444.44 used

add 80 for the better brick

and 320 for the rtx t1000 gpu.

so 850 no case no battery no screen.

It is a beast of a unit for 850.

and it actually mined for a month or so before eth went pos.

earned a few dollars back.

still looking for a battery/ups and a screen.

as i have a case that will work.

the battery ups is the killer will continue looking.

 Okay, while trying to type, I was told this topic has not been touched in the last three months and I was hoping the project @Welsh sought to achieve hasn't been dumped as well? Anyways, I was going through some stuff and decided to check for new updates to a briefcase computer with your thorough specification and I got this by Makefailrepeat. I'm not the expert, but this sure looks like something that should be worth your while.

As it's not a bad idea but there would be any electricity fully received by that briefcase computer? And can we give it our specification or the specification it needs would be from any other stats? It would depend mostly on the users I think, users can easily take it to any place, but in the meantime, they will not be used without electricity which would be a cause of its failure.
Whether I have seen computers but listening to the term briefcase computer first term, as the world is not too advanced, we have seen in the previous years people use big computers, etc. and now we can store our data even in a small chip like Memory Card and other form we can use like USB. It would be a good opinion if someone has good power over their computer and he wanted to make it for its use and the will he want to use it.

I think those "briefcase computers" exist but the closest I've been to it is through a movie screen. I've seen it been used by government agents mostly when they are out of their main offices, so you see them in military base or some woods somewhere, where they have to communicate with their base.

For personal uses, I can't say for sure if they are up for sale in the market but I know they are high tech and very rugged. If you can assemble such a device, I bet you'll not be the only one to need it but until then, its gonna be just different people from different locations thinking about the same solution simultaneously.
