Hi Guys
I Just Built A Gaming Pc Without Wifi And My Router Is Really Far Away
I Have A Laptop In My Room With My Desktop

it is possible but you most likely run into performance issues.

if you still want to try, look for something called Internet Connection Sharing for your laptop's OS.

Since you have new hardware, you should be able to use a regular network cable. If you cannot communicate between the computers, you might need a crossover cable.

another option would be either a wireless network card or an additional router that can work in Bridge or Client mode.
