Was using an ASUS H97 Pro with my 4670 but it broke so I'm looking for another board. 4 RAM slots would be nice but not required, DDR3 RAM compatibility, no overclocking or SLI. Budget is around $100. Was thinking about this one: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA0AJ4679730. Price is $188 USD on Newegg but here in Japan I can buy it for $100 USD on Amazon. Any opinions would be helpful. Thank you.

How many memory modules do you have? Basically any micro atx motherboard would fit in that case:

6x4GB. Out of all those listed on the link you provided this is the only one that ships to Japan and with shipping included it would cost $81.74. https://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-Micro-Intel-Motherboard-GA-H97M-HD3/dp/B00KRUX0X2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1484928188&sr=8-1&keywords=h97+micro+atx+motherboard&refinements=p_n_shipping_option-bin%3A3242350011

Its an atx case, I see no reason at all to go with an matx board.
Tragesaur - I'd just buy the h97 plus you listed if it's a local buy.$100 isn't a bad price , its a decent board .
Cross shipping from the usa will inflate prices a lot once shipping & duty come into play.

Leaning that way. The boards SgtScream listed aren't bad price wise either but since I have the RAM I"d rather use 16GB as opposed to 8 and as you said my case will fit it fine. Any other opinions/questions are welcome. Tyvm for all replies so far ^_^
