I wanted to know what kind of motherboard would work with this cpu that I have. My motherboard broke and its no longer in stock and when i match parts on pcpartpicker it says that they're not compatible.

cpu: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JIJUBAS/

I was looking at this motherboard and wanted to know if its compatible: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CRJU2X2/

Thanks.

These are the currently available Socket 1150 motherboards: PCPP List. Find one that you like and then check it's support page to make sure the CPU you have is listed as supported. The problem that you are likely to run into (as with the motherboard you linked) is that while the CPU is compatible. It may require a BIOS update (using a natively supported CPU) before you can install your Core I5-4460.

Since you don't have a natively supported CPU, you can hope that your new motherboard comes with an updated BIOS or, if it doesn't, take the board to a local PC shop and ask them the flash the BIOS for you.

In fact, you're probably be better off going to the local shop and let them know your situation. If you purchase the motherboard...

If you purchase the motherboard from them, they'd probably be happy to flash the BIOS for you at no charge. Otherwise, you're probably stuck going through the list of motherboards, above and checking each one to see if the I5-4460 is natively supported (on the list with the lowest BIOS version).
