Building a final mining/gaming system - what's the best MB, etc

I've got a 7990 mining away on a old MB (yes I know GPU mining is almost done, but I may switch to litecoin...)

I want to build a new super system that will mine for a few months then switch to playing BF4.

I would like to have at least 3 pcie slots (I've got a few 6870s in another machine), so I would be giving GPU mining one last blast from one machine.

How many cores do I need to run 3 video cards, plus a few asic erupters?


So what I need to know is what Motherboard/CPU combo do you recommend (this would be a bang for the buck system), power supply, even case...and having a ton of usb slots would be cool for those asics.

I've been told go with Intel only and I will probably buy from newegg, unless you recommend otherwise.


Thanks
