I dont understand here, your comparing a laptop cpu to a desktop one. You cant put the mobile i7 into a desktop or the desktop i5 into a mobile.
I am either transferring my old CPU from my laptop to build or buying an i5 4440 for it.
But you cant do that, you cant fit a mobile i7 into a desktop motherboard nor can you fit a desktop i5 into your laptop, there different sockets and not compatible.
I've been told if I find the right motherboard I could.
You were told incorrectly, i dont know of any lga 1150 mobo for a laptop that you can buy nor do i know of a socket g2 desktop mobo.
There is only one laptop that i know that has a desktop processor, and thats a super expensive custom built desktop replacement laptop by sager, with an i7 4790k at lower clocks.
