Need a compatible mobo for i7-5820k

[veech]

Greetings!

 

A friend of mine is looking to get a new motherboard that will be compatible with his Intel i7 5820k 3.3 GHz 6-Core processor.  He is on a budget, so anything up to $130 would be his maximum budget.

 

TIA!

Have you got access to eBay? It's a good place to get last gen motherboards.

He recently bought a board from some guy on eBay, and I think the part is defected.  He's been trying to get in contact with the guy but no luck yet.

EDIT: It was a MSI X99A Plus ATX LGA2011

Anything that's and X99 motherboard should work.

 

I think the socket its LGA2011

Thank you.  As far as my hunting on Google goes, I guess my friend might have to go a little over his budget.  Huh?

Yeah, most likely. The X99 platform falls under Intel's HEDT (High End DeskTop) category, and the HEDT stuff tends to be more expensive. Make sure you take look on eBay and other used sellers because old HEDT owners are selling their X99 stuff.

2011-v3 which is for Haswell-E (OP's cpu) and Broadwell-E

2011 would be for something like a 3930K or 4920K. Sandy or Ivy

Thanks for confirming. I was having just a little bit of trouble remembering, but my brother's X99 Strix being 2011 V3 usually helps me recall.
