No one can give an exact set of specifications to change. Every CPU is different.

Follow those tutorials, they are likely your best bet.

The very basics would be increase maximum boost multiplier, if the system becomes unstable increase core voltage and/or load line calibration, and monitor temperatures of the CPU under your test load. Your test load should be easily repeatable. (For gaming I tend to just use Cinebench as a worst case scenario) If it stays at a safe temperature, keep going.

You have the choice between an all core overclock, or changing the individual core count max boost. For gaming the individual core overclocking tends to produce better results.
