It has been 8+ years since I upgrade this rig
I am on Windows 7 x64 Pro. I need to get up to Win 10.
Gigabyte P67A-UD4-B3 with single Intel i7 2600K, 16GB will go into my tape backup server with Windows 7 and VEEAM. Both are matching Cooler Master Stacker Towers. The only thing I want to keep in this rig is my SAS RAID controller and 15K SAS drives. If this board could go to Windows 10, I would upgrade it. The current processor and ATI 6970 graphics adapter are fine for my needs. I want to get a new motherboard with PCI-e slots for a decent similar 6970 graphics card, PCI-e 8x for my SAS RAID controller. I don't want to break the bank on this upgrade. A decent Gigabyte board, Intel I7 processor, 16GB of RAM with capability to get 64GB, a decent replacement graphics adapter for Skyrim SE. I don't need a highend graphics adapter. My power supply is 1000W 20A single rail. It has its own 20A circuit.

Hello @SCSIraidGURU
Here is what I came up with that fit your specifications; https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder.aspx?load=d510ff47-254b-46ef-bab7-ba70cfeec6a3. You will need to change your Power Supply as you need a 24 pin from your power supply.
