It should work but it would possibly be easier, and costy the same, to get the z97 motherboard. Right now all you need from a CPU is an i5, you dont need the hyperthreading in an i7 and if all your goal is to play medium 4 years out I would say an i5 would be a cheaper option that will be just as good.

There is no i5 with a stock 4 GHz base clock though.

 

[Jameson Clark]

the point is overclocking isnt it? who cares what the base clock is i5s and i7s overclock nearly the same

 

[David36]

Overclocking is not a guaranteed thing and it voids warranty, reduces the life of the chip, and reduces the reliability of a system. Also when troubleshooting system/software problems you should not have anything overclocked.

Generally, z97 mobos overclock better than z87 mobos, and are not much more expensive:
