Microcenter sometimes has summer deals on motherboards. The GA-970A-UD3P and MSI Gaming have gone on sale there for $50-ish. Check deals around 4th of July before buying anything - an AMD motherboard with 8+2 power phases will overclock FAR better than 4+1 (which may even throttle at stock speeds with 8-core chips).

im going with a 6 core CPU though.
In that case, you should be able to get up to at least 4.2 with a good cooler. Definitely the better choice on a motherboard at that price point.
