Socket 1150 build

Ok, I know this isn’t going to be an absurdly fast build but hear me out….

I currently have a Mac Pro 5,1 using open core to run Monterey. This is a severely upgraded rig, I’ve 64gb of ddr3, titan ridge thunderbolt, 2x1tb and 4x3tb hdd in raid, a native Apple wifi/bluetooth card, rx580. It runs Monterey with no additional kexts etc.

I’m starting to hit problems with not having avx support but don’t want to spend a fortune, so I figured I could get a socket 1150 motherboard and a 4790k cpu, then transplant all the rest of my hardware and hackintosh it for not much money (the 64gb of ddr3 being the limiting factor here).

Is this a stupid idea?

What mobo would be best? Needs 4xpcie slots and 8 ram slots.

What case? I need to fit four hdd and 2 ssd.
