Serial, firewire, IDE and floppy port shouldn't be on the motherboard. Put them on a PCI or PCI-X boards, or even better a USB insert. There should be plenty of SATA 3.0, USB 3.0 in the front and the back of the board for easier cable management and connecting to the case. There needs to be more room between the PCI-E slots as one slot isn't enough. I am currently running in crossfire mode and the first card is a good 10-20 hotter idle.
Now for my revolutionary idea that popped into my head. Male and female motherboards. I was looking at the interconnect on the back my laptop and got the idea that if you had two motherboards back to back in a new style case that you could slowly upgrade a system by having two motherboards working together. Each with their own RAM, CPU, cooling system and power supply that people can buy slowly making it easier to put together a high end system without always hitting the cap. The Male and female would still work normally in any normal case so you can still sell to people who don't want to spend that kind of money but give them the option instead of selling the old computer to basically add another one at a much lower cost.
