I want a board that supports 64GB Ram, I am going hard, I am going to load windows, and have a linux stand along partition on the SSD.

Intended Use: Botting along with intense Game play
Budget$2000
Current Build
GPU=GTX 480
16GB Gskill 1600MGZ Ram
1 240GB SSD, Not configured within the bios setup.
1 2TB HD @7200rpm
trooper series case
Core i7-6700K 4.0GHz Quad-Core, GeForce GTX 1080 8GB Superclocked Gaming ACX 3.0, Define S ATX Mid Tower - System Build - PCPartPicker
Tbh I see no reason for you to change RAM or your storage solution (unless you're running out of storage).
That case is also a personal recommendation as you can go with any case you like, however the Fractal Design S is a ridiculously nice case for the price, not only that but the Fractal Design S has built-in sound dampening if you care about noise levels.

Would I see a major performance increase if I got myself another 1080 and went SLI? I don't have a 4K monitor right now, but I have a 4K TV, and I plan on getting the monitors shortly.
If I'm playing a game in 1080p on a 4K monitor, will it look weird/fuzzy?

Much thanks long time yes :)
It won't look weird or fuzzy, 1080p is exactly 1/4 of 4K, so when upscaling 1080p to 4K it's literally just each pixel is quadrupled and will remain crisp. Naturally 4K content will look best on a 4K panel but due to the aforementioned scaling, 1080p content will not be sabotaged.

@proxi You will most likely run into more problems with SLI that benefits. I had two MSI 780TI Twin Frozr's that i had in SLI config for a while (With the purpose of extreme resolution gaming). I ended up frying them both within 4 months. I now have a single MSI R9 290x Lightning that handles 9600x1080 resolution without batting an eye.
That just sounds like you didn't have adequate cooling for an SLI configuration, by no means should the cards fry regardless of the resolution.

I want a board that supports 64GB Ram, I am going hard, I am going to load windows, and have a linux stand along partition on the SSD.
I have to ask, what reason would you have for 64GB of memory? And an expensive board doesn't mean anything for your system, even sub $100 boards can support 64GB of memory.
I can only think of two logical reasons as to why one would want that much memory, the first is for content production and the other is for a RAMDisk (if you can call that logical).

Can you arragange Shipping to New Zealand?
That shouldn't be a problem, if necessary you can provide a trusted retailer that you would normally purchase from in New Zealand, then I will list components from that website.

@YubiBotter I doubt that's the case. Sorry for the dust but i'm pretty sure cooling is NOT the issue :)

I'm going to assume that's not a photo of your old 780 Ti's because I see neither a second card nor an SLI bridge, so that photo doesn't mean anything, that's just an external 480 rad and reservoir with what I believe to be NB E-Loops?
Two high end GPU's will get hot and I can almost guarantee that was the cause of death, especially with smaller coolers like the Twin Frozrs.

Nope like i said i run a single r9 290x lightning now. single cards perform much better than SLI (or crossfire) when using high resolution.

That is the same cooling system i was running before i just changed my waterblock for the r9 290x

Then I can only assume you installed your waterblocks incorrectly, for both cards to fry and that not be the cause, you'd have to be the unluckiest person I've met.
And I'm failing to see the relevance of "a single card is better than two for high resolutions", the load on two cards is less than it would be on one as both cards aren't necessarily utilized to their full potential, so that's not a logical excuse either.

Sorry I'm not here to argue. I was just providing feedback based on my years of experience of using extreme resolutions. He can take my advice or leave it :)
