If your cpu is the i5 4590 then get the H97 or cheaper Z97, if you have the K version, you need the good Z97 or Z87 MB.
Here is the Asrock H97 £55.99 http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00KHZ7Y0C/?tag=pcp0f-21 or the asrock Z97 for £56.73 http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00JO1B7PI/?tag=pcp0f-21

An ASRock Z97 motherboard should be fine.
