The reason keeping me from switching over to Linux is because I have a low end laptop GPU (AMD R5 M300 series) and every drop of OC is vital to me, I used MSI Afterburner on Windows and I don't know what to use on linux that actually work and user friendly if possible

Can you check if you're using the amdgpu driver stack?

dmesg | grep amdgpu

To OP, I'll add that it's very important to force the amdgpu kernel driver on your GCN 1.0 GPU, as it's the only way to get Vulkan support (required by pretty much all of the GPU compatibility layers that Proton/Steam uses).
