Yes. They will work fantastically. (I have 1070 and 3770, and it performs great)

When in doubt, re-format.

Why go for a 4790k, unless you aren't buying new.

alredy have the ram so it needs to be ddr3

The combination will work great.

 

Dont cheap out on the cpu cooler though. 4770K ran hotter but you will have a better experience if you use a quality cooler and not, say, the stock one

Using a 1080 with my 4790k. Havent tried it again with a lower overclock but I'm sure your setup will work.

 

Bought mine new a few months ago too. Don't feel like wasting more money on another board and ram.
