No, you cannot overclock with that mobo.

And that CPU isn't multiplier unlocked anyway.

@Quixit the OP was referring to Skylake non0k OC, which lets you overclock multiplier locked CPU with BCLK. But you need a Z170 mobo (with the right BIOS rev). I think there were also one or two specific non-Z boards that supported this, but the one the OP mentioned isn't one of them.

If you want to overclock your i3 6100 processor this is a very good and cheaper Z170 board.
