I want to upgrade this rig in the coming years. Looking for a motherboard board that supports:
- Optical Audio out (S/PDIF)
- Great Audio
- upto 64 GB memory
- SLI (Multiple Nvidia GPU in the future)
- SSD compatibility
- Good Cooling options (to upgrade in the future)
- Not sure about Overclocked memory. How will the performance of 2666 HZ ram vs 3000/3200.
- I will not be doing overclocking on my own. If auto OC available that's great.
