Hi everyone,
It's been a while. I was using the system below until it started having issues about a year ago, when it started having problems. After swapping out every other part with no improvement, I came to the conclusion that it was the motherboard. I didn't have the time or energy to deal with it, so it's just been sitting. Now I want to get it running to donate to someone who will mainly just use it for office tasks, huge spreadsheets, but no serious gaming. I'm looking for recommendations on a decent motherboard that will work with all of the existing components. I'm hoping to not spend more than one or two hundred dollars.
System specs:
OS: Windows 10
Corsair Obsidian 650D
ASRock Z97 Extreme6 MoBo
G.Skill Trident DDR3-2400 8GB x 4
Intel Core i7-4790K Processor
