Got Confused From My CPU

Hello

I have Inspiron N5030 Laptop, and I wanted to upgrade my CPU which is Pentium T4500 2.3 Ghz

to a Core 2 Duo T9500 2.6 Ghz , my Laptop socket is P (478) as shown in the image below

but when I unscrewed my laptop and got into the socket itself

I found that it is not Socket P (478) , it is Socket (479) (mPGA479M)

1- Which socket is true for my laptop ?

2- Will the Core 2 Duo T9500 work on the socket (479) ?

The sockets are physically the same.

It should, but note that Dell never shipped this CPU in that model system, so there are no guarantees.

So the Core 2 Duo T9500 can fit physically , will it work correctly without any errors or problems ?
