Hello,
i am tryn to find what the full potential of my dell dimension 9150, i have already upgraded the ramm and graphics card but i can find out if i can upgrade the processor i would like this to be able to use programs such as adobe premier pro and after effects with no problems
 
That chipset is too old for any core2 duo cpus; it's also a btx format board; they aren't made anymore for newer processors. The best cpu that might run is the 805 dual core. Use cpuz to see what cpu you have now. If you're not happy with the cpu, then this dell is a great deal and you can sell your old one on craigslist. http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/hot-deals/1142518/
