I'm fairly new to pc gaming and I was wondering what the best motherboard, case, and cpu combo would be for around $250-300. I'm just going to put in my parts from my current pc. I want to be able to upgrade to an i7 in the future, but for now an i5 or even an i3 would be perfectly fine. I'll be transferring the CX600W PSU, RAM, HDD, and GTX 750 Ti into the new mobo. Thanks for all the help!

Assuming that you don't need an overclocking MB, this would be nice though a bit out of budget:

The MB is currently on sale. You could get a cheap case if you really need it in budget.
