Putting my laptop parts in an stationary computer?

My family has an unused and dinosaur-old computer we don't use, and I tought that it would get a lot cheaper if I took the parts from my laptop and put them in that stationary computer instead of buyng all-new stuff.
of course I know I'll have to buy at least some new stuff since starcraft runs like a three-legged horse with down's, but some parts accually meet the requirements, it seems.

now, if it's even possible to do, what can I save here if I want the game to be able to play well on at least medium?

 

Erm... laptop parts are not copmatible with desktop computer parts. (Only harddiscs are, but this does not matter).

The game will yust run fine on your laptop, why not use it?

 

you sure?

And no, I've tried to shut down all other applications and turned graphics to lowest possible, and still I lag.

 

The parts can be relocated to a desktop case. But you'll have to find a way of securing/suspending them in there, because they're not designed to fit the atx mounting.

As said above, all parts in a laptop are smaller and are not physically compatible with desktop components. The atx power supply present in desktop systems is not compatible with laptop power systems, so the power adapter from your laptop will have to be included in the case and connected as normal.

Most internal connectors on the laptops motherboard are not physically compatible with their corresponding desktop connectors, although there are adapters for most of them, such as sata/ide.

The main difficulty you'll encounter is getting a connector for a monitor. If your laptop already has a vga/dvi out, you're in luck.

The disadvantages to this relocation:-
1. Your system won't be made any more powerful. It will still perform like a laptop.
2. It will lose its portability.
3. You'll not gain any ability to upgrade the graphics card unless you're an electronics genius.


The only real advantages are:
1. You will be able to cool the components much more effectively, so it would be possible to run games without having any heat issues.
2. That you will be able to use full size hard drives with better access times and transfer rates.
3. That laptop components are lower power and quieter than their desktop counterparts.

 

This is ridiculous, it simplay makes no sense to dismantle a laptop and try tu funnel incompatible components into a computer case. You seriously would not dismantle your racing bike and build the components into your car. This is simply b***s***.

Let's focus on the real problem, and that is: Why will the game not run properly on your laptop?
1) Do you run your laptop in energy safe mode? Obviously, you need to switch to full performance mode.
2) Your graphics chip seems to use shared system memory!? It makes no sense and is just a marketing gag. ("See how much graphics memory I have, har har!") Turn off using shared memory and tell the video chip to use its dedicated memory only. (Can be done in the BIOS.)
3) Update to the most recent Nvidia "Detonator" graphics driver, which can be downloaded from the nvidia homepage.
4) Disable useless background tasks like Skype, Adobe Updater, Java, etc. You might also have a slow antivirus software installed. Deactivate it for testing. If this helps, get some software that is performing better. E.g., Avira is quick and does not slow out your computer as many other antivirus tools.

 

I take that as a DO NOT DO IT, then.

and about the lag:
1) High performance is ON
2) will do. should I use google or can you guide me?
3) not sure if I have done that, will check it out
4) antivirus is off and no other programs are running.

 

Do you have a budget for any computer build?, you sound really desperate, why not save up for a pc?
