is there a software that can tell me the cpu socket?

im planning an upgrade on my cpu but not sure what socket to put into it i have an acer aspire 5335

 

The cpu socket is normally covered by a fan that needs to be unscrewed.
Incase im wrong because i have only changed computer cpu's not laptop checkout this: http://www.insidemylaptop.com/take-apart-dell-inspiron-1720-1721-dell-vostro-1700-laptop/
Dont forget to touch a metal surface not connected to the laptop frequently as you can destroy your motherboard with static electricity.
