Hi, I was planning on building a gaming desktop that I would build up over time (future-proofing), I still need a motherboard with 4-Way SLI/Crossfire support so any thoughts?

Current Spec:
CPU: i7-5930k
CPU Cooler: CM 212 Evo
Motherboard: (Don't have one yet)
RAM: DDR4-2400 16Gb (2x8Gb)
SSD: Crucial MX100 512Gb
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 3Tb 7200RPM
Video Card: MSI 970 4Gb Twin Frozr V
Case: NZXT Phantom (White)
PSU: EVGA 850W Gold Fully-Modular ATX
Optical Drive: Pioneer BDC-207DBK

Any opinions on this spec would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Edit: Oh I don't have a budget, just nothing ridiculously expensive.

If you don't have anything against Asrock then this is cheaper...

If you don't have anything against Asrock then this is cheaper and work station/server quality. 5 PCIe 3.0 x16 slots with 4 way sli at x8, also has a PCIe 2.0 at x16. Oh also m.2 of course. Also supports faster ram than the previous post. If this is still too much there are cheaper options.

Its E-ATX so your case needs to support it
