Micro ATX can be a fine choice IF it has all the features you need. Performance differential is not an issue.
Micro can of course be used in a full size case.
If you can get a better deal on a micro ATX board then do not rule them out, especially if your current motherboard dies in the future and options are reduced.
Often people make the mistake of wasting money to get an SLI board when they are not buying multiple high end graphics cards!!!
This ALONE substantially increases the price (with no other performance enhancements). Quad SLI worse still. A pointless feature unless you are going to be using the graphics muscle of thousands of pounds worth of GPUs.
