Ive dropped mine from my car and it was fine, if you keep it in the box there is little risk of damaging it unless you actually have a mental illness. If you need a build done go ahead and skype me @muffinrs and ill get one made for you. I can keep the desktop around 650-700$ (depending on what games you will be playing) which leaves you 300-350$ for a mediocre laptop (which shouldnt be hard to find).
