Yes it is, but since it is a older chipset (Z87 instead of Z97) it possibly will need a BIOS update

I recommend getting a Z97 board to avoid any incompatibility problems

it's a poor motherboard anyways...pick something else on Z97 chipset.

i would suggest this one it's dirt cheap right now for what it is:

or this one if you don't mind ugly ass motherboard:

it's very good.

alright, and do you need to be able to run dual graphics cards in the future or is it not something you need?

 

i would suggest this one if you don't need dual GPU support:
