I'm looking for a new motherboard to replace my buggy MSI X99S GAMING 9 AC. Its the bios that is most buggy and required some work to find the version that is least buggy.

So I dont want another MSI motherboard, since if there top of the line board has problems, I'm guessing the others is not much better.

 

 

Socket-LGA2011-3

I'm looking for an ATX or bigger motherboard, as my Thermaltake Core X9 will look redicules with a small motherboard in it.

It must have a good PCIe slot layout, as I'm runnning SLI with EK-FC Terminal (http://www.ekwb.com/shop/blocks/vga-blocks/multiple-block-connectivity/fc-terminals/ek-fc-terminal-dual-serial.html)

Support for overclock.

Support for my current RAM is perfered (Crucial DDR4 2133MHz 32GB (8x4GB))

Also, if it supports 4pin PWM controll, so would that be nice.

 

I have the money to go for the top of the line models, so thats not a problem.

If you have the money for it, then check out the ASUS X99-E WS. It's not white or gold, unlike all other ASUS motherboard :)

 

Though, with their X99-A (and a few others), then you can get them with USB 3.1 ports.

ASUS X99-E WS looks like a candiate, but so does ASUS RAMPAGE V EXTREME (with 3.1 usb), ASUS X99-DELUXE (with 3.1 usb), Gigabyte GA-X99-Gaming G1 WIFI, Gigabyte GA-X99-UD7 WIFI, ASRock X99 Extreme 11, ASRock X99 WS, ASRock X99 WS-E/10G and ASRock X99 OC Formula

So there are a few choices, but how they are on paper is different then how they really are.
