A friend's mother board died and he needs a new one and cheap as possible. He has i5-6400, RX-480, and 4X4GB DDR4 RAM.

This is the cheapest 4 slot 'board on PcPartPicker:

Bear in mind, it's memory speed support is limited, if your friend has fast memory he/she may need to purchase a superior part to run the memory at full speed.

Thanks so much! But doesn't the motherboard need to be Z170 chipset to work with the i5-6400? Or is their other chipsets that work?

H110/B150/H170/B250/H270/Z170 & Z270 will work with that CPU. For the price though the B250 would be the best to pair with it.

Thanks! His ram is 3000MHz so you prob wont tell a difference in games would you if it lowered speed?

No, with Intel the difference in ram speeds make very little difference in gaming.

SHOP! Compare prices and specs. This is why i wont do it for anyone else but myself because it takes work and I will not rely on others opinion. There is so much information out there. That is my opinion. The final choice is yours regardless.
