Laptop to desktop

[NLamki]

Hello, so yes I have a gl502vs, it has been serving its purpose well. But, recently I've decided to move on to a desktop, after much budgeting and planning, I decided that it would be much better if I can turn my laptop (Model stated earlier) into a desktop. I've seen some pictures of people doing this but I'd like if someone could write down the steps for me as I've never built a PC before. Also, will I need to add a power supply? As I'm planning on adding more (RGB) fans, and more RAM. And about the RAm, does it have to be the same model or could I add a " Team T-Force Delta RGB 8 GB DDR4-3000   2 x 4GB) I would've gone for more memory but my laptop already has 24GB of RAM. Also, recently I upgraded my HDD from 1tb to 2tb. But because of the pandemic, I couldn't get an internal hard drive so I put in an External hard drive inside the laptop, its been going fine but will this damage my PC?

I appreciate your time, tips and suggestions!.

Thank you.  

Also, would I be need an ATX or micro atx? Because I want to put it in a case.

Laptops do not use the standard components that desktop PCs do.

You cannot put them in a PC case and turn them into a desktop.

Instead of doing all of that work, why not by a decent laptop dock and connect it to monitors that way? Mounting laptop components inside of a desktop case will be a complex undertaking. Not really worth your time and effort.

Unless you have one of those special mobos which allow significant upgrades, you will be CPU bound. And maybe GPU as thats usually also hard to replace.
