Non Z Chipset Overclocking Mobo

Hi, i'm a guy in Australia where everything is expensive... and I  was planning to save more for a good desktop,but my laptop is starting to bug out, and I need a computer to use while I get the thing done, so I need to find a non Z Mobo that can Overclock for a Pentium Anniversary/K, because the Z mobos are just damn expensive, and it's gonna be a budget build, any recommendations?
