it supports upto 2133 ram but you would need to set it as a overclock

That's what i was worried about. is there a motherboard you could recommend around that price that will run the 2133mhz RAM? (without it being overclocked)

That one would work, but make sure it can fit in your case, if you're running a mATX tower it won't - ATX Mid Towers will work(and full).
It's also rather expensive - question: Why so fast RAM?

Because i'm going to be using an APU and the faster RAM will increase performance

No not really it wont increase performance just go for 1600 there is no need for anymore especially on a budget build.

While using an APU the RAM speed does make games run faster as the APU doesn't have it's own VRAM, it takes it from the system memory. While using a GPU, yes, it doesn't really matter about the speed of the RAM, but with an APU it's better to get faster RAM.

Just thought with the money you save on not buying it. Just get an all around better systyem later as lets face it no one's gunna use APU'S Forever. Well in there factory standard graphics. And i actually never knew that thanks Though it was just the same as a normal cpu when it came to ram.

The Kaveri-series APUs come with pretty good R7 Graphics, but nowhere near what you'd get with a real GPU.
