Is it safe to switch jumpers on the motherboard to change the clock speed to slow down a 100mhz 486 to 33mhz (for the purposes of running older games)

I think that would depend on the chip. Some chips may be totally cool with running at significantly lower-than-stock speeds, others would not like it.
I would suggest you edit the title of your post to include the CPU and speeds you are asking about it. Right now the title is too generic...
BTW, welcome to the forum. 😀

Thanks! I have adjusted the title.
Wrong forum. Ask old hardware questions in Marvin.
