For the GPU you don't need to do much anything because GeForce 1000-series cards have an automatic overclock of sorts that is so close to manual overclocking that doing it yourself won't offer any tangible benefit. The only way to actually get more out of your card is to either create a custom fan curve (you can do this using MSI Afterburner) to make the card run cooler, or raise the temperature limits for your card (also done in programs like Afterburner or Gigabyte's equivalent).

CPU overclocking is done in the UEFI (BIOS). This is basically a process of increasing your CPU's clock multiplier, checking to see if it's stable (there's a number of benchmarks and/or stress tests that do this), and if it's not stable, raising the core...

Rinse and repeat until you're getting too much heat.
