Hi, i've had this laptop for several years, around 3 years maybe. My problem is that i've been trying to upgrage it to it's max power possible,
and i now have the Intel Core i3-2330M, which i think would be compareably slow to the I5-2540M which is on the way right now,  since on my old post here people said that i can easily upgrade, but when i check it out online, a lot of websites say the sockets are different and they can't fit. : https://community.acer.com/en/discussion/632053/cpu-swap-acer-aspire-5349#latest. the exact full name of the I5-2540M i ordered is :

Original Intel Core i5-2540M SR044 Prozessor 2.6 GHz 5 GT/s 988 Socket.
