Motherboard for Intel 2500K

[sterzian24]

I will be buying a Intel i5 2500k and was looking for a motherboard to go with it for a good price (I would like a recommendation of 2, around 100 $). I will not be putting a high graphics card so dont need something towards that. I would need an integrated average sound system a few usb slots and the regular. Looking for something that works well.

The closest that I would go with at that price range with an Intel® Core™ i5-2500K is the Asus P8Z68-M Pro board at $130 from Newegg. I just used this board for a cousin on a build and she was very happy with it.
