well, you haven't provided many details, neither about your rig, or about what you are planning to do. Just tell us all about it, and maybe we can help. Are you wanting to overclock to 2.2? or buy another P4 @ 2.2Ghz? I believe the voltage for your 2Ghz is about 1.75 volts, but I don't know. We need more specs on your system.
 
You can run it on about 1.5 volts, unless your cpu is a willamette, which requires about 1.75. I wouldn't upgrade it unless you can upgrade the memory along with it. You won't gain enough performance to make it worth spending the money. First, check your motherboard chipset using cpu-z ( a free download ). The chipset of your board will determine the fastest cpu you can use, and if it's possible to upgrade to faster memory.
