I´ve been considering a laptop for some time now, however I do not like the idea of it overheating so easily, not being upgradable, and expensive compared to a desktop. Anyways, I do not really have my own ¨place¨ so to say right now so portablity is pretty important (will most likely have to take it in various plane rides). I was thinking perhaps building a fairly portable desktop and then using the money left over I would have spent on the spendy gaming laptop on a cheaper $300-400 one. So my budget for the desktop would be around $700-$800. I´m assuming I could build something that´s on par or better than this laptop:

sager np8230 ($1,200)
CPU: i7 4700mq haswell
GPU: GTX 770m
Any advice, or possible builds? I was looking at the new prodigy mATX case that´s coming out, perhaps that´s a possibility? Is a mid tower really going to be TOO heavy-akward to transport when needed?
I´d mainly be playing RPG´s and Strategies, especially the Total War series, including the new Rome Total War II that´s coming out. Also, I currently have no OS, and am leaning towards windows 7 due to game compatability.
