Expensive yes, but the speed is worth it

Not a bad machine, but if I had that money to spend on a computer, I'd still go for a desktop with multiple GTX 680s.

Well and if someone don't have enough space for a big desktop? What should he buy?

This ^^

MicroATX exists (although no Quad SLI GTX680s).

For the money that an equivalent laptop costs, he could probably buy a shelf to put the stuff he has on the floor on, making room for a big desktop, though.

Learn to make room then. Also, a powerful desktop doesn't need to be big in size. As AnyOldName said, MicroATX exists. MiniITX also exists although you'd be limited in hardware options.

And how to cool a powerful system (i5-3750k overclocked + AMD Radeon 7870) in Mini ITX format? Nearly impossible to put a high-end cpu cooler in a very small case.

Lol can you even get an i5-3750 on mini ITX? XD

My question was, how to cool an heavy overlocked CPU in a Mini ITX case
