How can I successfuly overclock my ATI Radeon HD 5450, without causing any excess heating leading to harm ?

Sorry, it can't be done. Any overclocking will do damage because the Radeon HD 5450 has passive cooling (i.e., heatsink). Overclocking should only be done with the proper equipment, and I don't think you'd want to spend a lot of money to do that when it's cheaper to buy a new graphics card.

Also, this is the wrong section.

Overclocking is fairly pointless on low end equipment. For example if your currently getting 20fps and you manage to squeeze out an extra 10% performance your only looking at an extra 1-2 frames.
