Using a laptop cpu in 22nm desktop motherboard

[warrior_x]

I want build a middle-level gaming desktop. Not to spend much money (because I have to spend lots of money for a graphic card), I want to transfer some of my laptop components to the desktop. HDD is pretty simple to transfer. I can also use my mobile RAMs in the desktop via an adapter such as this. But I want also transfer my laptop processor to the desktop. It has 22nm architecture and there are some desktop motherboards available which support 22nm processors such as this one or this one. I am curious. If I bought one of these desktop motherboards and put my mobile processor on it, would the system work?

i dont think the cpu socket will match

Lets make this clear for you - just because it's 22nm architecture doesn't mean that it will fit into every board that supports 22nm architecture. The first thing to look for when going for CPUs is sockets. A CPU has to go into a motherboard that has the corresponding socket. Ryzen for example is AM4 socket, so motherboards must have an AM4 socket to put a Ryzen chip in it (For the record, laptop sockets are almost always completely independent of desktop sockets. In fact, most laptop CPUs are soldered onto the board and can't even be removed. Laptop and desktop CPUs are separate for a reason.)

Since you'll have to buy a new CPU, you're also probably going to have to buy a new motherboard. This also means you need new RAM, desktop RAM, since newer motherboards will not support older RAM. The HDD is the only component that you'd be able to transfer, and you'd have to reformat the HDD and install windows on it to make it work with the new motherboard. I don't think there's any way to get around not spending a bunch of money for a whole new PC, but I could attempt to make a decently cheap budget build if that's what you're looking for.

EDIT: Your RAM might work if you went with an older motherboard that supports DDR3, however I don't suggest going back to older models to make it work. You're still going to have to spend a good amount to make the whole PC work, you might as well try to get something newer so you can have an upgrade path.

Let me just say that if you are trying to build a PC, do it right the first time.
If you attempt to stitch together a PC in the way you intend, you will never have a proper system, and you would have zero upgrade path.

As has already been said, I would only recommend the HDD for transfer, and even then its probably only a 5400rpm drive, not the recommended 7200rpm.

Thanks for helping. I will keep in mind your suggestions.
