It's not a matter of affecting the video - you won't.  If you have a Celeron CPU, a Core 2 of modest speed may help.  Beyond that, it's not worth it - don't spend a lot on a CPU upgrade;  with the poor video chip in this system, it won't gain you anything.

Any of the Core 2 Duos on the 800 MHz bus will work.  The ones running 1066 MHz won't, nor will the new Core i CPUs.

The T9500 is a faster CPU because of the larger cache. 

Both are like putting a V8 engine in a Hyundai Accent - they're both overkill.  They'll just shift the bottleneck to the video, which can't be upgraded.
