I'm building a (budget)PC next week and I was wondering if this motherboard: https://www.amazon.com/MSI-Skylake-Motherboard-B150M-Pro-VD/dp/B017NIDX1E/ref=as_li_ss_tl?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1471586456&sr=1-1&keywords=b150m+pro+vd&linkCode=sl1&tag=joeydel2525-20&linkId=b22564fa2edb039e95747e8652f9daf8

Would work with this CPU: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113284

If it does not work can somebody send a motherboard with the same price that uses ddr4 memory and a gtx 1060??

To use that processor, you would need an AM3+ motherboard and as previously mentioned, none use DDR4 RAM.

>$60 AM3+ Motherboards at PC Part Picker

The alternative would be to go with an Intel processor to pair with your Intel based motherboard which does accept DDR4 RAM

>$160 Sky Lake Processors at PC Part Picker

Note: I excluded Kaby Lake processors as a BIOS update would be required in order to run those processors.

Either route will allow you to run the GTX 1060 graphics card, provided you have the sufficient power supply.
