Looking for the best mobo and cpu for a total of about 500 dollars. I currently have a MSI 7640, AMD 6300 (not overclocked) the stupid huge Sapphire R9 390 Nitro 8gb and 16gb Corsair RAM (2sticks). I also have a hyper D92 dualfan cpu cooler. Ik this has been asked a bunch of times but with the new Zen release and whatnot im not sure whats good for the price anymore.

If you go for amd IMO you should wait for zen architecture to release . And if you want intel side these are my thought

Well, for $500 you can have your pick of whatever you want (barring one of the $1,000 Intel chips, of course).
Biggest questions are:
-- do you plan to OC?
-- do you want DDR3 or DDR4?
-- do you want an M.2 slot for an SSD, or plan on sticking with SATA III?
-- do you want SLI/CrossFire capability?
-- do you want mATX or ATX?
-- do you want onboard Wi-Fi?
