Advice for new computer options


I am planning on purchasing a new computer near the release of Planetside 2. Portability is an issue for me as I have some serious plans to do some moving around in the near future.

I do not want to have to sell my $2000 desktop because I can’t take it on the move. With this said if someone could give me some insight on what travel/shipping options are available for full sized PC’s and the associated costs, I would appreciate it. If there is an affordable and feasible method for me to safely ship a desktop across the country this would be my ideal choice.

I have looked into gaming laptops but comparatively they are far more expensive for equivalent power, plus they have minimal upgrade options for the future.

I have stumbled upon miniature desktops similar to the Falcon Frag Box found here http://www.falcon-nw.com/desktops/fragbox (Falcon custom computers are very much out of my price range). I was wondering if anyone knows anything about these types of computers such as overheating issues, component flexibility, and future upgradability.

As for relevant information from the suggested information thread, My Budget is $2000, the primary function of this computer would be gaming, I live in the US, and I plan on running Windows 7 64bit.
