Is the asrock h87 pro4 and intel core i5 4460 a good upgrade from an ECS A880-gm ad3 and an amd athlon x3 460?
Will I see any perfomance gain?

You'll notice a considerable performance increase with those components.

Here's a CPU comparison:

What's probably best is that the new Motherboard supports PCI-E x16 3.0. That will give it considerable future proofing for Graphics Cards that demand that slot-type being released over the coming years.

I personally prefer the Gen 3 processors like the I5 2500k or the I5 3570k but to answer your question, yes you will see a performance gain. Just make sure the CPU lands fit the socket type on the motherboard before you buy anything.
