can I use the intel Core I7-14700K with this motherboard and have no issues with compatibility?

Yes, this CPU is listed on their compatibility list (see other previously answered question)

Does this support Intel 14th Gen Processors?

According to their website, the answer is yes. Make sure to check their CPU support list from gigabyte to make sure the CPU you choose is on that list. I am currently looking at the Intel Core i9-14900K - Core i9 14th Gen 24-Core cpu for this board and it is on the support list.
