Question / Help Enough for a dedicated streaming pc?

My name is Raylock, I am an aspiring gamer looking into streaming. Sorry i didn't know where to quite put this post.

These are my current pc specs:
intel i5 2320 processor
transcend 4G DDR3 1333 DIMM ram
intel dh61ww motherboard
Intex Techno 450 20+4pin 450 Watts Psu
and a 500 gb hard disk
no gpu

I'm gonna buy a new gaming laptop in a month or two and i was hoping to use/revamp this 5-6 yr old pc into a dedicated streaming pc.
i'm only looking for an entry level gaming laptop. My eyes are on acer helios 300 and msi GS65 (the 1070 versions). I will also keep my eyes peeled for the new next gen gaming pcs(ones with nvidia 2070).

I am really confused if this setup will work out and i am here to ask help. i know i need a capture card and a ssd(probably m.2 drive, but i doubt the m.2 will be supported with current motherboard). I will also need a new cabinet and need to have a modular psu maybe? idk. I'm not looking to totally remake this pc or buy a new processor since i will move out after a year to abroad.

Feel free to suggest laptops and what to do with my current desktop.
Also should i get a primary 144 hz external monitor and a keyboard(instead of using laptop's)?Laptop will be primarily for gaming/streaming and secondarily be used for my college work(which is when it's display and portability come to play).

Thank you in advance.
