I have a midtower case, a Sata Hard Drive 500 gb and a 1000w power supply

Need to upgrade to 64 bit windows 7 for Maya and After Effects

How do I pick a motherboard? I only know I want 4 Ram slots.

If you do not have the CPU yet there are better options like Xeon E3 1230 V2 which is basically I7 without the IGP http://pcpartpicker.com/p/382Q9
