Buy Laptop, 14 to 15 inch gaming laptop, ASUS, ACER, MSI has a goog cheap one for gaming.

why would you recommend a notebook if he has almost a complete computer which probably outperform almost all cheap notebooks.

 

@op

if you have patience then just try the xeon on your mainboard. if you want to spend as little as possible then buy a mainboard which works with the xeon.

or you can sell the xeon and choose the most powerful / cheap cpu on the cpu compatible list.

Why? because it's just  convenient especially student who always busy gathering data outside or inside school,

for a student laptop is perfect. and the PC spec OP suggesting is not a truly gaming desktop and some middle class laptop have all the spec on it.

I'm a student, and I prefer a desktop/tablet combo most days (some days I'll bring my laptop in to download large files off the fast internet.) We mostly use the school's desktops anyway because they have the necessary programs we need for school work (MatLab, Mathematica, Programming environments, etc, etc.) For a laptop that will be able to play most games at even 900p you need to spend at least $800. For a desktop that can play all games at 1080p you need to spend $550-600 or most games at 1080p ($450-500.) I see more people with tablets in my classes than laptops these days. My laptop personally just asks as a media device these days. I use it to play digital blu-rays.
