So i bought a second hand pc from my friend, i already upgraded the gpu but now I want to upgrade my processor to an i5 7600k. The problem is my mobo is a a68hm-k which only supports amd cpus. Any non-overpriced suggestions for motherboards compatible with my cpu and supports overclocking?

Cant see any reason to buy a 7600k nowadays.
An i3 8100 is just over $100, a ryzen 1200/1300x,2200g is less than that,& am4 motherboards are way cheaper.
Barely any performance difference between any of them unless you're pairing with a gtx 1070 or stronger
Buying a pc from your friend & then fully upgrading makes very little sense.
You're essentially just repurposing the case , PSU & hard drive - you'd have been better off building from scratch new.
