You didn't mention how it's connected to your laptop, but some headphones (including yours, judging by the Amazon page) can run the mic and headset through the same cable.
Your sound card may not be able to pick up that it's a 'dual-cord', however. My PC has this problem. You may need to be split the cord manually to the headphone and mic jacks.

Something like this may be what you're looking for. Hope it helps.
You probably want something more along the lines of this. I'm not entirely sure about it being able to fit, so make sure you measure how much space you have and compare it to how big the card is. Depending on your power supply, that might also have to be upgraded as well, as the ones that come in prebuilts are often barebones and unable to handle an extra graphics card.
Also, you might find some more help in /r/buildapc. It's more active, and this sub is for live help with builds, not part picking.
Hey so another redditor point some stuff out and ran an idea by me.
First. The case is the small form not the ultra small so it will support a 16pin card correct.?
He said they did kinda the same thing but ended just popping off the side of the case and using https://www.amazon.com/Dovewill-Powered-Extension-Extender-Flexible/dp/B076KNDYCF/ref=sr_1_9?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1521518585&sr=1-9&keywords=PCI+Express+16X+Riser+Card+Extender+Flex+Flexible+Extension+Cable. As well as dome zip ties to secure it in a stable fashion. I know its not the smartest option. But would that work. And again sorry to bombard you. Just trying to learn.
Also someone pmd me this 980ti https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00Z0UX8TA/ref=ox_sc_act_image_5?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER and it looks like a better option unless its not worth it
The RX 480 only draws around 150w, which isn't a huge amount. You should be fine I'd say with any PSU 400+w. As another member said, you can get a dual molex to 6 pin pci that looks like this.
If you can list the PSU you have in the build, myself or someone else will be able to tell you if the PSU comes with the PCI cable or if an adapter like that will be needed. If the PSU is only 400w or even lower, it would be ideal to list all your parts, so someone can check you will have enough power available.
Worst case you may end up needing a new PSU, something like this 500w EVGA bronze 80+ is reliable, should cover your power requirements (depending on other components, but I'd be surprised to find otherwise) and not overly expensive (£57) for what your getting.
they are both on 1600x900 atm. i can link you the amazon where i got them. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00S8W8QMG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I read that its the same to use VGA slots instead of PCI-E (Which are none existent in my PSU) but still I don't know how the connections go, since the GPU is 2 6 pins and in the PSU it is 6 pin socket each VGA.

I assume the front panel on your pc has 2 separate ports for Headphone and Microphone. Most laptops and phones combine these into one "Headphone microphone combo jack" however not all pcs do. You will need to purchase one of these or similar in order to get it working.
I removed the GPU and it runs games without crashing.
I have found out that The GIGABYTE RX 480 G1 8GB GDDR5 DVI/HDMI/3XDP Gaming Video Card has a BIOS (F4) error. I tired downloading the new BIOS (F8) and installing it but I do not know if it took because it still crashed.
Other people have posted the steps on amazon reviews for the GPU

Yes your sound will be degraded.

Triangle is indeed positive, it shouldn't matter much because a switch doesn't get affected by the direction of current.
That said, I would start by checking if all the cables, graphics card, and ram are plugged in all the way. According to your motherboard manual, the motherboard has "EZ Debug LEDs" (pg 40 in the manual) if one of those leds light up that's the problem. If none of those light up, I would check that the powersupply is working either by using a spare powersupply to test and see if your build turns on or by using a monitoring plug like the Killawatt to see if the powersupply is drawing power from the wall. If none of that works, I would remove the graphics card and use the integrated graphics to see if its a dead card. If you have some spare sticks of ram I would try them to check for dead ram, also try the ram in the other two slots.
If it's none of that, I would assume its a dead motherboard or a dead CPU. However, your description sounds like a dead powersupply, so test that first.
