Hello, I've gotten everything down except for the motherboard for my build and I'm not too familiar with mobos and what to look for. Please recommend one for me to look at!
I use Newegg and Amazon for my purchases so, if you can, post a link from them!

Rig will be
GPU Evga Gtx 970 FTW+
CPU I7 4970k processor
Ram 16 gb (2 8gb) G.skill Sniper series 2400 ddr3
SSD Samsung 850 Evo 250gb
HDD 1 TB HDD Seagate
Case fans will include 4-6 fans depending on which case I get
PSU EVGA 650 gs
Windows 10

i would prefer it to be under 100, max under 150

Thank you :)

Note: Starting out I wont OC anything but I may dabble in it later on. So feel free to post boards that can OC as well as cant.

Also if you could post why a board is good I would appreciate the knowledge :)
