All you say is true. Just pay attention to the type of Celeron 300A.
There are two type of Celeron 300A : one marked MALAY and other COSTARICA.
The first one is the right choice to overclock, the second one doesn't work.
When Intel found (maybe thay know this before) that many people used Celeron 300A
at 450MHz has modified the L2 cache so that doesn't work at higher frequency.

You can find the series of Celeron on the bottom of circuit.
the right series is SL2WM and SL32A (MALAY)

Best regards Alfredo
