The socket is PGA947, not LGA1150. You can't use this mobile cpu on a desktop motherboard.

Hi guys, I have an older gaming laptop I started to disassemble due to overheating issues, and I was trying to find a motherboard for a proper case, and just reuse the cpu. However, whenever I search the CPU model, Intel Core i7 4710HQ, most searches or forums talk about a soldered cpu, and never say if its LGA 1150 or not. My CPU isn't soldered onto the board, so could I in theory buy an older motherboard with a LGA1150 socket and still use this CPU? Thanks for reading and any help!
