Need Help with Powering a Portable PC Build

Asked by TechDreamer42
I'm really excited about building a portable PC, but I could use some advice on how to power it effectively. I'm not a tech expert yet, but I'm aiming for something compact and easy to transport. I envision having suitcase-sized fans at the back, and I'd love to include AIO water cooling if possible. For power, I'm considering using three power supplies or power banks connected in parallel, but I'm unsure how to set that up safely or if that's even the best approach. Any suggestions?

Water cooling might be a bit tricky for a portable setup. Instead, consider a micro ATX case; they're compact and can fit your requirements without needing a special power supply. What do you plan to do with this setup, by the way?

If you're looking for something small and powerful, Mini PCs could be a great option! Theyโ€™re compact and usually come with decent specs. But if you really want to build your own for that personal touch, go for it!
