Hi All,

I'm a graphic designer trying to get into the VR world with HTC Vive.

I'm looking for builds who can fit onto a mini itx case as I'm usually travelling.

My main goals to achieve with this build is develop on Unity and also play games.

I don't know if this is a realistic approaching or is not suitable in order of cooling with such a small space.

If you want an ITX rig you can't get much smaller than the Fractal Design Node 202. Here's what I would suggest:
