It can go up to Q6600 or Q6700, up to QX6700 but cooling must be upgraded.
Also, if you are planning to stick video card like 6670 or 7750 low profile - this will push power supply to the edge, so it is dangerous, but possible if you agree to take the risks.

I look one more time and I see controversy. You said your power supply is 300 watt, but actual Optiplex 745 SFF power supply is 275 watt according to manual, so what you have?

Look at the pictures below and point to yours.

Considering that you might want to upgrade your video card as well, I would stop at Q6600 as the cheapest one (due to popularity), your system will become more noisy if it is OK.

eBay only for lower price http://www.ebay.com/sch/CPUs-Processors-/164/i.html?_fr...

If you want to bid, price can be lower.

Anything else I can help you with?
