You want to build your own laptop?

yes,

i do

There aren't really any standard cases or motherboards for this, you could try to build one from desktop PC parts (or 2nd hand laptop parts? but why not just get the full laptop at that point?) in a laptop form factor, but it's gonna be pretty hard to keep the thing slim or looking somewhat decent.

What are you trying to achieve  building your own anyway? Is it just for the experience? Or are you not happy with the laptops available?

search for "barebone laptop" and "intel nuc laptop". I don't know if the nuc laptop is available yet but the desktop models could be used as a portable machine. They have a form factor that can take a dGPU and another that comes with a 2060.

intel is bringing one to market. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/details/nuc/laptop-kits.html

Some of them have gaming GPUs!

As far as I can tell from the webpages and images it's still pretty much a fully assembled laptop, basically the same as getting a Clevo. Not sure to what degree that counts as "building a laptop".

both i was thinking of making a am4 motherboard for athlon and case as heat sink.

If you look at the desktop nuc lineup there are other manufacturers using intel's form factor and bringing their own designs to the market. If the NUC standard takes off we could be able to get fully upgradable laptops and all the environmental & cost benefits that come with it.

Sure, that would be really cool, but I doubt it'll help with building a laptop right now.

Are you implying you're gonna create your own AM4 motherboard?

 

If anything your best bet would be to buy an as slim as possible AM4 motherboard with a slim cooler and fabricate / 3D print a case for it, it'll probably still end up pretty bulky tho... I am no expert in fabricating laptop cases nor do I know how much heat they can transfer out so I wouldn't know if you could cool a desktop level athlon with one.

so is there no easy way to make one?

Not in the way you're suggesting, there are some companies that do offer barebone laptops like @Mling mentioned before, these would be things like Clevo laptops where can you can choose what hardware you want in your laptop, usually paired with easy upgradability but you're still technically buying a full laptop.

 

If you really do want to build a laptop you could build a laptop from a Raspberry Pi, there are some cases for these, but you'd be limited  by the ARM chip in them so running any x86 programs off it is gonna be a no-go, also expect to be running linux on it, although I think I saw a recent project where they made the ARM version of Windows 10 work on it.
