I want to change my cpu from my laptop because I can't play with the current one. But I don't want to spend 90 euro on a CPU if I can't replace it. I have the Acer aspire A515-52k. How do I know if I can swap the cpu? Because I've read that some laptops are nowhere to be found

Look at the chipset and the base of the mainboard. There are enough lists online with compatible CPU motherboards kombis.

With https://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html (portable version is sufficient), you can see which socket it is on, then you can tell whether soldered or not. With the hip flask, I don't think you'll have a chance. Especially since the cooling system has to pack the waste heat.

Thank you so much! So if a socket is specified, the cpu is not out of date, is it?

I mean soldered

A socket is always given, but it can be used to tell whether it is a socket like in the desktop or a soldered one.

I have socket 1515.
