So I'm building an editing/programming/school work/web browsing/gaming pc and I need a motherboard recommendation. So far, my this is my build (I know the PSU is mediocre but my friend is letting me borrow it for free):

I'm new to PC building and I can't decide what motherboard I need. It has to have these features though:

overclocking
a good amount of USB 3.1/3.0 ports
USB type C
wifi (not ethernet but the wireless kind)
ethernet
ability to play sound through my monitor speakers: https://www.asus.com/us/Monitors/MX279H/
headphone and microphone ports
ATX sized
compatibility with the parts in my build
support for at least 4 hard drives/ssd for future upgrades

These are features that I would be willing to pay a little bit more for, but not a ridiculous amount:
Bluetooth
look of the motherboard matches my parts

The motherboard does not need to have:
support for multiple graphics cards


Please let me know if you think I left out any features that are potentially important. Thank you for your help!
