Is it possible to build a PC this small with similar amounts of power? A gaming laptop or mini-PC would be vastly more convenient for me than a regular desktop since I move around constantly, but those are pretty expensive.
Yes.
Silverstone sg13b. 40 dollar Mini itx case that fits atx power supplies. It's what my current build is in. It's about the size of a shoebox, and doesn't cost a ridiculous amount of money for just a case, like anon posted before me. It's a good case, i have a cx 600 psu, r9 380 which is a full length gpu, corsair h60 liquid cooler, and a few 2.5 inch drives (which are necessary with full sized parts like this)
I dont see a point to it unless you literally have no space.
A ATX form factor pc in a small case would be better for compatibility.

Yes, but if similar you mean looks then no. Whitebox cases' looks are understated at best.
