The Dimension 4500 takes Intels socket 478 processors, the processor you are looking at to upgrade to (socket LGA775) will not run in the Dimension 4550 as its a whole new chipset and will not work in older motherboards.

I understand that.  But I want to know if the cpu I have will work in a newer motherboard. 
 
I am trying to harvest as much as I can off the dell and put it into this new computer that I am building.  I need to know if the cpu I have will fit in this motherboard, not if a new cpu will fit in the dell.
