You're starting from scratch with CPU and GPU overclocking on an Omen 30l. It's normal to feel lost—just take it step by step. First, check the manual or online guides for your specific model. For CPU overclocking, ensure your motherboard supports higher frequencies and you have the right BIOS settings enabled. For GPU, make sure your graphics card drivers are up to date and try different power limits in the settings. Don’t rush—start small, monitor temperatures, and avoid pushing too hard early. If you're unsure, ask a community forum or a more experienced user for tips. You’ve got this!

Overclocking requires careful adjustment. I'll outline the key points:
1.) Set initial static voltage and multiplier, such as 1.2v with a 4.5GHz target.
2.) Perform a stress test using tools like Prime95 or Aida64 for about 15 minutes.
3.) If stable, boost core clock; if not, raise voltage.
4.) Continue testing steps 2 and 3 until thermal limits or desired frequency are reached.
5.) Run stress tests for several hours to verify consistency.
6.) For GPUs, increase power and temperature limits, then raise core clock in 15MHz increments.
7.) Stress test with Furmark or demanding games like Shadow of the Tomb Raider.
8.) Adjust memory clock gradually at 50MHz intervals.
9.) Repeat steps 5–6 until crashes occur, then fine-tune by 15–20MHz.
All adjustments should be managed via MSI Afterburner.
