You can't use an Intel cpu on an AMD motherboard. The 4790 will require a new motherboard.

Yes you need a new motherboard, and your Cougar PSU (made by HEC) is poor quality and should be replaced as soon as possible. This motherboard is SLI ready and so is this high quality power supply-

how about the msi z97s sli plus...is it compatible with my rig?and how about the cooler master v750 gold?are they good?are they compatible with my rig does it support sli?

The MSI board will also work and the Cooler Master V750 Gold, made by Seasonic, is very good. The board and PSU will support SLI.

thx man one last question...can this pc runs the latest games at max settings on a 1080p 60hz monitor?is it futur proof?here's the specs after i buy everything
cpu:intel i7 4790
gpu:msi geforce gtx 970
ram:16gb
mobo:msi z97s sli plus
psu:cooler master v750 gold
and do i have to get a cpu cooler?or the stock is just fine?i have a cooler master hyper 103 is it good for the cpu?

The stock cooler will be fine. Bigger coolers are only needed for overclocking and very hot living conditions. Future proof is hard to predict. The i7 and GTX 970 is future proof for at least several years. In a few years you may want a more powerful video card but the i7 should still be going strong. You should be able to max most games at 1080p 60Hz. with your system. It will be a very good system.
