Hi and welcome to the Gigabyte Forum.

The only way to overclock your currrent processor is the BCLK as the multipliers are locked. Now that the memory controller is also on the CPU it makes things even morew complicated and dangerous if you increase the voltage too much. I would advise doing some reading up on it before you start delving into the BIOS settings.
