Hello can anyone recommend the best budget motherboard for an i7-2600k? I will be running it with a Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050ti.

My motherboard has recently packed in, was a motherboard from an alienware aurora r3.

I currently have 4x4GB HyperX Ram, was also wondering if that would fit any recommended motherboards.

Thanks

Is your cpu a LGA 1155 Chipset? If so your new board will need to be 1155 socket.

Yeah I believe it is a LGA 1155 chipset. Any recommended cheap decent motherboards for that? I will be playing the likes of CSGO and pubg

The problem is that this is such an old motherboard that you're dealing entirely with the used market. Which means it's not a situation where you really get to look for specific, recommended motherboards. Your challenge is combing for something adequate at a reasonable price and the prices and availability of these things will vary so much on a daily basis that it's near-impossible to give a recommendation.

I've been looking st motherboard cpu and ram just incase. Can get all of it for under £300 with the Ryzen 5 2600 and a b450m motherboard or the Intel option was an i5 8400 with an msi b360m
