Hi all, I recently went through the process of upgrading my computer from 8GB of RAM to 32GB of RAM, unfortunitly I found that one of the RAM ports on my comp was broken so I am forced to replace my motherboard. I do a fair amount of gaming and video editing on this computer and I was wondering what board to upgrade too? I had this one in mind.

Another thing I am worried about is if my new RAM will be compatible with what I buy.

This is the RAM I upgraded too recently.

My current build has 8 USB and I'd say that's around the number I'm comfortable with. My Motherboard is ATX, just one sata port and I will be using 3 monitors on this motherboard. Besides that I have no special requirements.
