Gaming Tiny computer below $1K

Define what you need. I use a gaming laptop in the $1,000 range and it works great: Asus RoG.
You can build a gaming computer under $1K easy.
But what is "tiny" to you? We tried to do a tiny gaming desktop for me two years ago and it was really hard to do.

Where you are in the world will also determine how much to get for $1k

I built what I consider a tiny gaming computer for ~$700. It's built in the BitFenix Prodigy.
-
My hoping to fit the computer in the cabin bag, same size as Lenovo M700 but with beefy video card. I'm planning to get it in Amazon.
-
How big is a cabin bag?

Ah, You'd be better off picking up a laptop. There aren't many gaming PCs in the book-end form factor.

Cabin bag is around 20 in x 17 in x 9 in. A HP RP5 may fit but my bag will almost be full. I prefer a gaming desktop at around or below 12 in x 12 in x 3 in so I can put other stuff.

That's what I discovered.

what are my options for gaming laptop below $1000 with good user feedback?

The ASUS ROG series is phenomenal. MSI also has a gaming series that is really good, although I think it will be slightly more then $1K.

My Asus RoG was far from their entry level and was about $1,100. I liked it so much, I have two of them.

I assume this means that there will be a monitor/keyboard/mouse where ever you are taking this cabin bag?

Isn't a cabin bag what pilots and flight attendants use?

So many protein bars.

I have a gen 1 version of this, with an i3, and it's been great. I'm not a super serious gamer, but you can get way better GPU options now, and the high end one is $1,000.

The review about yellow ring on amazon is scary, this could have been a great product if i will get the working one.
