Portable PC with monitor in it

[salerhino]

Ok guys, so my idea is buidling the something like all in one PC, but from used parts.
My plan is to get some PC case and put monitor to act like its side.
I think that should work, but only problem is that-for example 19 inch monitor "fits" side of ATX case- but PSU is not allowing it to fit in. Is there any workaround for this problem?
Shoud I use smaller monitor (even though only smaller is 17 or 15 inch and I think that won't help much).
Should I try to find some small PSU?

P.S.: One more question is, can I use pcie x16 card in x1 slot?(PC won't be used for gaming or any hard work)

Thanks in advance people!

That's called a laptop.

If you wish to use 'desktop' parts, that called a 20lb laptop.

"any workaround for this problem"
This is entirely up to your DIY skills.


Or...
A regular case + PC inside, and heavy duty velcro the monitor to the side of the case.

Yeah I don't want to get laptop because of overheat problems and for same money I can get better PC;
Could maybe try to find mini-atx and ITX motherboard but can I use ATX PSU in mini-ATX case?

This is very much of a custom casemod.
All up to your personal skills.
