Not sure if this setup has lasted nine months or if switching the motherboard would help. Worth it? Probably depends on your needs.
It's probable to damage the board and could render it unusable if it doesn't meet the required specifications.
I rarely connect a K series with entry-level motherboards. You should be lucky your board is still functional. Just run hwmonitor and monitor the MOSFET temperatures during a stress test—this will clarify why pairing a top-end CPU with a budget motherboard isn't recommended.
Preferably use a fan with heatsinks attached to the VRMs. This will help because the CPU won’t stay at full load constantly, so VRM voltage stays near 100W instead of a steady 200W+. If the VRMs aren’t already sufficient—depending on your case’s airflow—the addition of a fan and heatsink can greatly reduce overheating problems.
