Ok so I have my cpu, i5-6600k but don't know what motherboard I should go for. I've seen the Gigabyte GA-H110M-S2H Micro ATX LGA1151 Motherboard, it looked cheap. But I really don't know what to get. Is this good, bad, any suggestions? Also try make the motherboard on the budget side. $175 max, in NZD not USD. New Zealand is that small country next to Australia. Thanks.

You cannot overclock the i5 6600K with a H110 motherboard, you'll need a Z170 to do so.

 

If you're not overclocking, it's kinda pointless in getting the i5 6600K, and you should get the i5 6500 instead.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.
