It's as safe as you make it. In other words, take your time and read LOTS of info before starting.
Processors, ram and overclocking forum: http://forum.pcmech.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2 Kamikaze_Tom on these forums got his e6400 to 3.6GHz

Before you even try overclocking you gotta understand and accept the risks...once you overclock you void all your warranties and there's a good chance you'll end up with corrupt data.
Also, don't even think of overclocking unless your computer was built with premium parts. Budget parts don't overclock well.  Cricket
