how complicated is building a gaming laptop

[Th3Lib3rat0r]

My budget doesnt matter and I possibly want to do water cooling. Is the only way to buy barebone kits and go on from there or what? Ive built a gaming desktop before b. I want like a min guide or, for someone to direct me to a certain way to start on my build Thanks!!

It's far too complicated even to consider doing it. A desktop PC case is more or less an industry standard but not so laptop cases. Your chances of finding a motherboard and case that match with all the ports on the board lining up with holes in the case are worse than winning the lottery.

You're lucky to have a large budget so a ready-made would be best. If such things as barebones laptops exist, I will be very surprised but that would be a way to go. I Googled it and found mainly Forum threads like this one.

Whole point of laptops is mobility, why would you want to shackle it down with water-cooling gear?
Might as well just get a desktop if you are.

Anyway, there is no water-cooling gear available for laptops, and as far as I know there isnt any way to build your own laptop.

I Googled for laptop watercooling and found some YouTube content that was probably some chaps beavering in a Batcave somewhere conjuring up strange and curious Heath Robinson gear but I doubt it could be taken very seriously. Manofchalk said it all in agreeing with me - you can't build your own laptop.

Fascinating reading but the only review I read didn't look very encouraging. Follow the links to prices and see what one chap posted. Anyway, I have enough trouble taking other people's laptops apart to fix them.
