Yes it supports it but you may need to overclock it on the motherboard to unlock the full potential of the ram

Don't get the LE version of that motherboard, please. Either go with the normal M5A97 R2.0 or the EVO version. They may be a tiny bit more expensive but will be worth it.

Other versions have VRM heatsinks and more features which make for better overclocking.

Depends how much you're willing to spend really. If you can spend the extra then by all means go with the EVO.
