I bought a geforce 760 and 520w for an upgrade. Thought i was good to go, but i found out that my acer motherboard (it's an acer pre-built pc) doesn't support the 760.
So im left with an option to sell 760 and get a new compatible card, or buy a new motherboard.
Im going with the latter,

I need an inexpensive motherboard (micro atx, LGA 1155) for my i5 3450 and 760. I'd imagine a lot of board that's not for a pre-built system would work, but im just being extra cautious because of the issue i had =/.

I hear 3450 model isn't really good for overclock, so that should narrow the motherboard options down.
Around ~$50 price range.

It's beyond my price range =x.
And it seems you can only crossfire, doesn't support sli (which i also don't see myself doing ever).

There are so many options with 50-60 dollars price point but im undecided.
Some are from the same manufacturer/brand. I only need the minimum, not looking for future improvements/modifications.
