I was looking at a budget beginner set up and the motherboard they sugested was the AMD B450 AORUS Motherboard with Hybrid Digital PWM, M.2 -https://www.gigabyte.com/us/Motherboard/B450-AORUS-M-rev-10#kf but when they recomened it, it was listed at 69 bucks, which was great but now its $135 and thats a pretty big spike. Im looking for a motherboard with the same compatibility but nearer to the 70ish buck price point  

This is my list of parts so far 

 

AMD    Ryzen 3 3200G   
Motherboard:    GIGABYTE    B450 AORUS M 
Memory:    Corsair    Vengeance LPX 16GB (2x 8GB) DDR4-3200 CL16   
Storage:    ADATA    SU635 256GB SSD  
Case    Rosewill FBM-X2 Micro ATX Mini Tower  
Power Supply    EVGA    500 BR – Bronze 500W   
CPU Cooler:    AMD    Wraith Stealth Boxed Cooler

Another absolutely excellent and rock solid motherboard is the b450 tomahawk Max. 10/10 would recommend and I can’t find one person who disagrees with me :) Prices around $115 and sold out online rn though but micro center has some if they’re near you!

My bad. You said you were “looking for a motherboard around the same price point” but mentioned two price points, $70, and $135 so it was a tad confusing.

The pro 4 or maybe the pro vdh max it's decent 

I would say it's not as good as the pro4 but it has a 3 or 2 stage 6 phase (I think ) power design so it's not bad either
