Is the ASUS B150 PRO GAMING D3 compatible with 7th gen Intel CPUs?

[PH!L]

I am building systems for my GF and me. Ive had a B150 PRO GAMING D3 lying arround for a while and i was planing on useing it for her system. I got confused when i saw on the back, that it is only compatible with DDR3 RAM. From the ASUS website i learned, taht it is compatible with 6th gen Intel CPUs (witch i thought only worked with DDR4 but I might be wrong on that). Is this DDR3 board compatible with 7th gen CPUs and if yes does it make sense to use it in that way?

no it is only compatible with 6th gen chips.

 

7th gen chips don't have the DDR3 support on their memory controller.
