Every chip are different so it's a question of high how your specific chip can go.

For the GPU - Use the included MSI software to overclock. You cannot really do much wrong on a modern GPU as it will just start to throttle when it gets too hot.

For the CPU - You do have a Z270 motherboard right? Start by increasing multiplier 1 step at a time and test 1 hour if prime95 everytime. If it's stable then move on 1 step more. When it's no longer stable increase Vcore. Don't go higher than 1.35V unless you know what you are doing. Also make sure to have a good cooler as I7-7700K is known to be running hot.

Also make sure you have good quality PSU before attempting to overclock. Don't overclock with a cheap crap unit.
