Yes 5th gen Broadwell will be LGA1150 (your MoBo included) compatible. Get the 4790k for better gaming/ editing needs and 4820k for better server side needs.
4820k compatible MoBos will not support 5th gen.

Nice rig, you'll love the Hero (couple of mine in sig) and yes, it provides the upgrade path to the Broadwell CPUs when they arrive
