A good cheap mobo for intel core i3 2120.

[cynosure33]

well my budget is about 700 but so far i have everything except a mobo and im already at $650. but here is what i have and it would be great if you could help me pick a mobo (in the future i think i will want to crossfire and upgrade! so keep that in mind ) and help me pick some things to keep me under my budget!

Can't help you with arma 2; I'm not a gamer.
