Would be much helpful if you could include what CPU you're currently using so we can recommend something compatible with your existing processor.

 

Can't read your mind. :)

Honestly if you went $10 further you could get a Z97-K from Asus which is really good, but otherwise a H97 board from like gigabyte or Asus would be good.

MSI seems to hold their resale value a bit worse than a lot of brands so see if you can get a Z77 PC Mate or something like that used.

Well I suggest reading reviews of a mobo that you may be looking at in a store at this very minute but I can recommend Asus boards for their UEFI and reliability and MSI for service. I've had issues with Gigabyte service and software.
