If you could help me on upgrading my laptop i am looking for a skylake cpu, maxwell gpu, and it to be housed in the corsair 100r for 500 usd

Can you give some more info, what are you gonna use the PC for, where are you from (as different parts of the world have different prices and availability), etc.

I went for Skylake as you asked, but went for an AMD Polaris GPU (RX 470) as I felt it was just better for the price. But you could always just go for a second hand GPU like getting an HD 7950 or R9 280X.

The motherboard I chose only has two RAM slots, but I also chose 1 8GB stick in case you ever wanted to upgrade to 16GB.
