You don't need a cooler, the stock cooler is fine for such cpu.
I recommend the asrock h77 pro 4 mvp, since it has more features for the money, it has 4 Sata III ports, the realtek ALC892 audio onboard, overall a good motherboard.
Keep in mind all of those will allow you to crossfire, but at 16x/4x.
