No, the I7-8700K needs a different type of motherboard. It requires an LGA1151 300 series board such as the Z370. None of the newer 300 series boards are compatible with older processors. Previous models need a 100 or 200 series LGA1151 board like the Z270 that I mentioned earlier. Therefore, you'd have to switch again to upgrade from the I7-6700K to the I7-8700K.
Ok got it so i will need the one for the 8700k could you send me a link for a ASUS z370 and just to confirm it will be fine with my gtx 980ti?
thanks

Could you verify if the Asus PRIME Z370-P motherboard works with the 8700k? Also, do your four Samsung 8GB RAM sticks fit? Thank you.
