I just got a new PC for my birthday (thanks, Dad!), and my dad assembled it himself. After getting it up and running, I found the necessary driver and fixed the initial issues. However, I'm still facing lag while playing games. I wanted to check if overclocking was the problem using MSI Afterburner, but to my surprise, I can't edit any settings. Can anyone help me figure this out?

It sounds like you might be running into a few issues here. MSI Afterburner is designed to apply changes only upon startup, meaning any settings won't save to your GPU permanently unless they were set in the BIOS. First, I recommend checking if your BIOS is set to stock settings for your GPU. If you're still having gaming performance problems, try reinstalling your GPU drivers to make sure they're up to date. Also, if you can share your PC specs, I might be able to suggest more specific fixes!
Double check that your Afterburner is running with administrator permissions; that can sometimes block you from making changes. And if you haven't already, resetting your BIOS to default settings might clear up some issues. Don't give up! There's a solution out there.
