Hello, I am looking to get a new CPU, with a budget of $200. Please recommend a compatible CPU!
(1151 socket, H110M chipset)
intel only

Motherboard: MSI H110M PRO-VD PLUS
CPU: i5 6400
GPU: GTX 1060 6GB
 
Solution
The best you can do with that board is to get an I7 6700 or 7700... for the 7700 you might need to update your BIOS.

Because you have a H110 chipset motherboard overclocming won't be possible, so there's no point in buying a K series chip.

Between the 6700 and the 7700 is not that much of a difference, so get whichever you find cheaper.
