Yup. Y110 boards aren't suitable for overclocking since they're the simplest chipset. For overclocking purposes, a H170 would work better, though the Z170 is usually suggested. If you're planning to build a micro ATX system, the Gigabyte Z170MX Gaming 5 seems like a solid mid-range option if you have the budget.

My setup accommodates both micro and standard ATX, so a suitable budget DDR4 board would be ideal.

Based on the budget, I estimate it's under $100, which means the Asus H170M plus matx board would be a suitable choice.
