Hard to say without any other requirements.

ASUS and Gigabyte are two brands I tend to trust. X79 already puts it up into being a premium board, I don't think you can find a retail/consumer board of low quality out there. Maybe some OEM/Server designs, but even these would be pretty robust.

# of drives?
CPU?
Cooling?
Memory? # of memory sticks?
Form factor?

This appears to be the cheapest still listed on partpicker that isn't a Intel branded (Though nothing wrong with Intel), can probably shop around and find some more boards more directly.

Poked around at some other e-tailers hoping to find things that just hadn't been submitted to partpicker, but doesn't look like there is much new out there.

Used market should be decent, but some of the better boards out there would probably still be out of your price range.

If you want, A deluxe x79 board has some more features. Really depends on what you need
