How Fast can my Dimension go?
Need some info please......i've got a Old Dimension 4550 tower, I've had it about 6 or 7 years now and, I'm still running the same P4 that is 2.66 ghz, 1GB of ram.....I've upgraded the DVD drives, memory and the HD, but i want a more powerful machine..........Can i still run a dual core CPU on the same mother board? or would i need to buy a new CPU, motherboard and probably a case!
if i do that then it jus won't be a dell anymore!

In a word - no. The motherboards for that style case allowed up to the 6xx series Single Core socket 775 P4's. Your 4550 is still a great machine, but switching to a dual/multicore system will require an entirely new setup.
