No need to change you have a good combo , 100% compatible.

Have fun building!

Yes, the 7700 (non-K) will work. The Z270 likely brings a little more features to the table than you need - and would pair nicely with a 7700K to allow you to OC, but would require a cooler too.

If you want to opt for the 7700 (non-K) and can still returns some components, you could pick up an H270 or B250 board and save some money.

The H100i will be mostly a waste of money with the 7700 non-K, which includes a very adequate cooler.
