I have overclocked my cpu, and need more from my GPU. Its an integrated graphics card, but is there a way to overclock it? My bios doesn't give any options to though. Thanks. Its a lenovo ideapad 15IBR

You want to overclock the Intel HD Graphics? I don't know of any way to OC the integrated GPU. You can look into the Intel XTU program, but I don't think there's any simple way to adjust the clocks with the integrated graphics.

You cannot overclock an integrated GPU. Even if you could, overclocking an integrated GPU on a laptop with no cooling is a recipe for disaster.
 
Not worth the risk in laptops. They have poor cooling anyway.
Cook a desktop component which has good cooling and you can replace it.
Cook a laptop component, bye bye laptop.
 

Some laptops have poor cooling system designs, but most high end ones are rather efficient. Some high end laptops have modular equipment, also. Not all laptops are so poor in practicality.
