How to overclock safe

No. For faster loading, you need a SSD as your system drive.

^+1.

However, OCing CPU and/or GPU will give you better FPS in most games (usually).

It does help with loading sometimes, but CPUs are for computing so it really helps with either gaming or music/video editing, rendering stuff that sort of thing. You don't need SSDs for faster loading, a 2 or 3 HDD set up in RAID 0 is much much faster than a single HDD, and HDDs are way cheaper $/GB than SSDs.

You're overclocking a safe...?
What is it - the kind they keep money in, or a rubber?
Wait! You're asking how to overclock safely...
Silly me.

HDDs in RAID 0 does NOT help in loading.

Loading is dependent on the access time instead of transfer rate. Raid 0 only improves the transfer rate, FYI.
