this may sound stupid. lol but i got a free office machine from my dad its a p2 slot 1 300. I was wondering if these are overclockable or anything like that im new with this old crap lol.
 
It might have a unlocked multiplyer on that model CPU. It was around the P2 >350 or 400 when they started to lock them. Jump into you bious and see if you can change the multiplyer.

You can also raise the front side bus.
 
No unlocked multi on the P2 300 I'm afraid. Also, if it's a first generation Klamath 300, your overclock potential is almost nil, since it was built on a .35 micron process. If you have a later 2nd gen P2-300, then you have a very good chance of overclocking it to a 100 fsb speed to make it a 450. I had 1 of those second gen P2-300's and I overclocked it to 450 for around a year until I got me a slotket and a P3 750 FCPGA proc. If it's something like a Gateway or Dell box that has no fsb adjustments on the board or in bios, you might still be able to fool it into running a 100 fsb by covering one of the contacts on the processor card. I remember reading about that either here in the front page news or at anandtech some years ago.
