I observed that most desktop GPUs have a higher memory clock than their core clock, such as 1200/1700, whereas my laptop has 1015/900 stock. My card is an Radeon R9 m375 with 4GB memory. The Nvidia laptops also follow this trend—higher memory speed compared to core speed. My question remains: should I increase my memory speed to match these higher numbers, like 1015/1100, or will it not make a difference? Additionally, why do my GPU specifications differ from others?

I'm not certain about your laptop's condition, but I understand that many of them have weaker video cards or issues with cooling that lead to lower performance compared to desktops. Regarding your question... Technically, it's possible to overclock most laptops, though I wouldn't suggest it. You usually lack the ability to manage heat effectively in a laptop, which can result in significant temperature increases.
