I am going about research for upgrading my cnc's electronics, and I see a lot of different stuff out there. I am getting kind of confused on all of my research, and it seems that I cant find what I need! what bords out there will support a variable speed spindle, with 3 axis, and have outputs to a plc for a tool changer?

Are you talking about a breakout board? What software are you using? Almoat every decent breakout board on the market supports a spindle and at least 3 axes with several outputs left over for communication with a PLC. Sounds like you need to do some more research. You can start by searching on the zone for the things you're unsure about.

You need to be a bit more specific.

Yuu mention tool changer, boards, plcs - generic non descript stuff that fits almost ANYTHING. - you don't mention O/S, servo/stepper, size of machine, brand of machine, type of tool changer, positions, motors you know DETAILS.

What gives???
