Would overclocking my CPU with my motherboard be a bad idea?

Hey guys. I may as well list my specs in question first.

CPU: https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819117561

Now, I've been tempted to overclock but I don't know the repercussions I may have. I don't think I have the best motherboard, I bought it because I was on a tight budget and I wanted the CPU socket & DDR4. Although I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this question, I just want someone to reassure me so I don't potentially miss out. Thanks guys :)
 
Solution
Your board doesn't support overclocking, so it's a moot point.

If you could, it would be a bad idea anyway - the H110 chipset doesn't get the added VRM cooling among other things that would be needed to keep you stable.
