You may need some low profile memory (or remove the heatsinks), and do a better job of wiring the CPU pin than this guy did;

From that angle it looks like it's possible, but again the RAM clearance is going to be the potential issue. That board is a Z77, but the RAM locations are pretty much unchanged compared to Z97.
