I Need A Motherboard

[Amaan909]

Can you help me find a cheap motherboard that can support the i3 6100 and gtx 750 ti. Also needs to be micro atx. I dont care about aesthetics or leds just a simple cheap motherboard will do. Thanks

that CPU doesn't support DDR3, since the new gens are moving to the DDR4, sorry bout your old RAM but u gotta move on, except if your DDR3 is a L version:

As of this date, there are only 2 options in pcpartpicker that offer motherboards for your i3-6100 with DDR3/DDR3L support (https://pcpartpicker.com/products/motherboard/#c=112,113&f=7&sort=price&L=3&qq=1) which is the Asus B150M-C D3 ($82.00 @ Amazon) and the Asus B150M-A D3 ($199.89 @ OutletPC).

Note also that those motherboards recommend using DDR3L (low-voltage RAM, lower than 1.5V), so, if you have regular 1.5V DDR3, it would cause system intstability (even potentially damaging the component/s).

I would suggest you get the DDR4 motherboard suggested in my first link (such as the ASRock B150M-HDS being offered at a discounted/promo price of only $46 in Newegg. Then, get a new DDR4-2133 RAM kit for ~$70 (for 8GB capacity).
