I don't know of any motherboard that accomodate a 770k that have 12 USB ports. You might be able to use a hub or two to get some more ports from a USB 3 or 3.1 port in exchange.
4 Sata is a joke that I would guarantee 99,9% of board on the market top by another 2 ports upward so that is not an issue.

If you use C236 you should go with a xeon SKU... otherwise not a big gain since you wouldn't be using ECC etc......

 

12 Rear USB ports is a big ask. Just use a hub or case headers.... Or PCIe add in cards for more USB.... that board has plenty of slots for it.

maximus 9 formula has all your connectivity. (with 2 usb 2.0 and 3.0 ports with the onboard header.)

 

dont forget you can get cheap pcie cards for more connectivity
