Need motherboard around $100

[rudo2mas]

I have an

Intel Core i5-3570K 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor

That I basically got for free. So I need a board around $100 preferably from Amazon that can also fit a Gigabyte GTX 780

Here are a few highly rated boards under $100 that will serve you well -

are these boards reliable? I mean I can spend a little over $100 for a mobo. $110 maybe?

Gigabyte and Asus are the two top brands, though those boards are all highly rated.

You need a 1155 board, that socket will not accept your i5.

also you have an unlocked processor, so if you get a z77 board you can overclock. if you dont know what that is, just get an h77 or something along the lines of that. in the future you can get a z77 board if you want to overclock. z77 boards are usually more than h77 boards, by quite a bit for a good board

Good choice, and its alright, was just reminding you, its easy to get confused, as Intel changes their sockets every other day.

Should work good with the board you chose.

Oh and also should I get a PSU with more wattage? I currently have a 600 watt thermal take I was going to use.

Should be alright, but you should check the amperage on the PSU and the required amps for the 780 to make sure you have enough power.

is this PSU compatible with the GPU and motherboard?

Should be, corsair is a good brand, and it puts out around 46A, so it should be alright.
