I read that the Asus matrix r9 280x has a triple slot cooler, will it fit on the z87 micro atx board as well as a soundcard (xonar DGX)

I chose micro atx because full atx motherboards have insane prices in aus, for same reason sapphire and other r9 280x cards can't be shipped here.
 
Solution
Yes, it will fit. You will have to put the Xonar into the dark brown PCI-E slot at the bottom (the long one). Graphics card will cover all the yellow ones.
