Recommendation on motherboard and audio interface – Computer Setup and System Configuration Forum

Type of music I do :
I mainly produce music using virtual instruments using a midi keyboard. Rarely some vocal recordings.

My set up currently:
I am currently using Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 (1st gen) and motherboard- Gigabyte Intel LGA 20113 X99 4way SLI/CrossFireX ATX Motherboards GAX99UD4. I have 32 gigs of RAM.

Need:
Need an upgrade to reduce latency and process more virtual instruments/plugins seamlessly.

Recommendation needed:
Any good recommendation for audio interface. I am looking at Apollo Solo. Would Apollo solo suffice for my need? To get the maximum out of it, I am hearing thunderbolt 3 is the way to go.
My motherboard doesn’t support thunderbolt. Do I need to upgrade my motherboard as well? If so, Any good recommendation for motherboard as well?
