Building new PC, need help!

[Rektum]

I'm looking to get a new PC.

So far, my ideas are for it to consist of an i5 4460 and a GTX 970.

 

However, I would love to know what kind of motherboard best suits these 2 components. I'm looking for something that isn't too expensive, but still gets the job done.

Ok welcome to the forums don't forget to follow your own topics.

 

You would be good with getting a H81 mobo for what you want as you don't have a overclockable cpu.

[Thought]

Do you have a set aside budget? That would help a lot in deciding what parts to go with.

Why would they buy than if they're using a locked processor?

No point in getting a Z97 mobo as he doesn't have a overclockable cpu.

Motherboards don't affect performance, get some decent quality H81, it will do the job just fine

Ahh yes. The H81M looks very nice at a cheap price. Would it be fine with a i5 4460 and a GTX 970? Sorry, sort of computer noob.
