Hello. I was wondering if anyone knew of a cpu that was thin and could fit in a laptop but still cheap and great performing enough to play games like minecraft or portal 2. If possible maybe even sonic generations! Or if you dont know then should a just use a intel pentium g3258 or a amd athlon x4 860k and also I would want a good cpu fan too! Thanks for looking at this thread.

You can't put a desktop CPU in a laptop...

 

Do you want a Slim desktop. Or a laptop?

You can... It's just no common, and usually expensive...

And you can't buy off the shelf laptop coolers.

The Pentium M was the same socket as the Pentium D. 

But that was long ago.

You can buy laptop cooling pads. You can also get laptops that have full fledged 3820's, 3930K's, 3960X's and more.

Laptop CPUs tend to be soldered in, don't they? You can't just build one and replace it like you can a desktop.

Cooling pads are not the same as a laptop Copper heatsink. With a heat pipe.

No, you cannot replace the CPU in your laptop unless you bought a very specific gaming laptop for $3000 that has this extremely rare feature (which you probably have not, judging by your knowledge in PC)
