I think this is Jumper J16, next to the battery. 
Here's some info on the G3 beige tower:

The jumper block you place at location J16 configures the board
to work with different processor modules. Use the appropriate
jumper block, identified by color, for each processor module.
The jumper block is protected by a void-warranty sticker. End
users are not allowed to remove this jumper block. 

Processor Speed Jumper Color
233                                Red
266                                White
300                                Black
333                                Green

So if you upgrade the processor or want to overclock the existing one, you
need to play with this. You can use standard jumpers (there's more than one
size, though) for each pin rather than the complete set that's in the
colour-coded ones.
