The Travel Transformer

This computer is purpose built for traveling, working, and gaming. It is small enough that it can fit into any bag so that I can take it to the office during the day and then take it home and pop in the graphics card for gaming (it takes 10 seconds to do without tools).

It is built around the AMD 4750G which runs cool with the Scythe Big Shuriken 3 (no more than 60 C ever). It runs silent! It's quieter than most laptops.

The GPU is the EVGA XC3 3080 that took me dozens of trips to Microcenter to get. The case took a few months to acquire from Taobao. It is the earliest version of Yiluka YLK 01 that I acquired in late summer.

Everything about this build has been a journey in itself, and it's my best build I've ever had. It takes only a few screws to take apart entirely and I never needed to add any case fans because the CPU cooler keeps the VRM and RAM and NVME cool enough.
