The only motherboards that currently take DDDR4 ram are X99 - Intel.

Going from an i7 4770k to anything from AMD would be a step backwards. See http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-cpu-review-overclock,3106-5.html

You've got a good build as is. I don't know how you've ended up with 24gb on a dual channel mobo though -ram should be in kits of same size ram sticks.
But you could get a better graphics card eg gtx970. And/or get a better quality power supply. See http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-1804779/power-supply-unit-tier-list.html
