Hello I'm building a new pc for a friend of mine this year and I just wanted your expert opinion on the parts that I choose.

This PC is a workstation/gaming pc. He has a budget of around $2000-$3000. He wanted a sound card so I picked this one

Also he won't compromise on the ssd/hdd and ram (He wanted 32 gigs) setup so I can't change that and the power supply is for future SLI and OC. Plus he wanted some headroom so yeah. Anyway like I said I wanted to ask your insight into this build since I've only build one PC in my life. These are my questions.
-Is it powerful enough for rendering?
-Do I need a wifi card? with the motherboard?
-Does the 2 fans in the corsair act as a exhaust fan?
-What does this mean? (Some Intel X99 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Broadwell-E CPUs.)
-Should I get the 6850k instead since it has 40 pcie lanes? Because I'm not sure if I have enough pcie lanes if he's going with SLI in the future.
-Should I better headset and speakers for my friend?
Unrelated question
-Is it better just to wait for amd zen since it has 8 cores?
The rest of the build like the monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers and headset. Are here:
