The Mini ITX is a portable PC designed by Andrey Avgust, which is essentially a workstation on the go complete with an integrated display measured at 24 inches. It also features a battery block and has a quick-release plexiglass cap as well.
To cool down the station, there is a big bent copper heat pipe and the motherboard is notable attached to the case through the smaller heat pipes. Active cooling is supported by two fans on both sides with adapters found inside of the computer case. Other elements include the waterproof case that is made from plastic as the frame is made from aluminum and the straps are constructed from leather to properly distribute all of the weight.
