Mobo Suggestions?

Hello everyone,

I'm in the process of building my first computer and the only part I don't have figured out yet is the motherboard. The parts I have so far are;

Case: RAIDMAX AURA ATX-927WB Black SECC Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Processor: i5 2400 (so chipset 1155)

Memory: 4gb G. Skill RAM

PSU: Corsair 600w

GPU: I won't be purchasing one for a little bit but, eventually I will (and I won't be using crossfire or SLI)

HDD: Samsung F3 1tb (I won't be using a SSD)


Budget - I would like to spend no more than $110 on a motherboard (that way it will fit into my budget) but, if there's a good one for less I'm fine with that as well.

Help is very much appreciated, thanks.

The overclocking of your cpu is limited so you don't need a fancy board. I would look at one of the gigabyte boards either h61 or z68 chipsets; the least expensive z68 is a biostar. I use biostar and have had good luck with them. Newegg had an msi p67 board for $110 earlier in the day but that deal has expired.
