Laptop - Stripping out and updating with new components?

[BennyC]

Hi guys,

I have a Sony Vaio C-series laptop (VGN-C2Z).

Whilst it's serving me perfectly well I feel it could do with an update.

Aesthetically I really like this laptop so am wondering if I can just strip out the old Motherboard, CPU, RAM and graphics (if it isn't intergrated) and replace it with better parts.

What are my limitations? Obviously size as it's a 13" laptop, and the power supply, which it's usually always plugged into the mains.

I recentley upgraded the HDD.

I guess I was just trying to figure out if I could replace the CPU, Mobo, RAM, GFX and maybe a blu-ray drive, if it would all fit and be cheaper than replacing the entire laptop itself.

Thanks in advance,

BennyC

Thanks for the replies guys.

I'm not looking to do anything short term although just wanted to see if there were cheaper options other than buying a whole new unit.

I already have a desktop rig at home, currently at University.

It was more curiosity than anything else.

Thanks for the help.
