Does this motherboard have overclocking abilities?

So I don't know where to look to find out, but can I overclock an FX-6300 with this motherboard? Oh and if there's another board you can think of it is greatly appreciated 😀

I wouldn't overclock on that board. It has a very poor thermal design.

Here's a decent board to overclock on:

PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3P ATX AM3+ Motherboard ($93.99 @ SuperBiiz)
Total: $93.99

It's usually <$75, if you wait a few days the price should drop. The same goes for the Asus M5A97 R2.0.

Here's another more expensive 970 board which you can overclock on and it has sli capability.
