I'm looking for a PC case specifically for mobile gaming that can withstand high vibrations without breaking down. Aesthetics don't matter to me; I just need something safe and functional that can handle the bumps while I'm gaming in my semi-truck. My last case failed due to vibration damaging the PCI slot, which affected my GPU's performance with the motherboard.

Instead of just focusing on the case, check out vibration isolation feet from McMaster Carr. You could create a shelf that’s mounted securely and hard-mount the PC to that. I travel with a full-size PC in my luggage because a decent laptop would cost way more.
You might want to consider just getting a gaming laptop instead. They’re built to handle transportation and vibrations, plus you can easily attach a monitor for a better experience. Sure, a laptop won't match a desktop in performance, but it's designed to be portable and durable. If you really want a desktop, look for a mini-ITX or uATX case with a horizontal motherboard setup, so everything's held securely in place by gravity.
Honestly, a gaming laptop would probably be your best bet for what you're trying to do.
