Technically yes, but I wouldn't suggest it on this board. I got two sticks of Team Group Delta 7800 RAM to go along with this board. At first the RAM XMP settings worked great, and it was 100% stable at 7800. Then later I updated to the F3 BIOS and my PC stopped posting when the XMP settings were loaded. I could only run the RAM at the default 5600 speed. I tried downgrading the BIOS, but it still wouldn't post. I've tried every new BIOS Gigabyte has released, but I still can't get my system to run at 7800 like it used to. Honestly, I'd go with a different brand of motherboard.
