  1. What's the PC for?
  2. Please list all the parts you already own.

Aren't you forgetting something? Namely, your RAM?

 

Also, please quote people when replying to them, otherwise they might not see your response.

Uh.... okay, that worsen things up. Anyhow, here's what you'll do:

 

First, you'll be putting that 370 of yours for sale. I'm not sure about how much exactly is that GPU worth, but I'm pretty sure you can get at least 100$ out of it. Sum that up with your original budget of 150$ and that leaves us with 250.

 

Then, get this mobo and hunt the used market for an i7 4770 / 4790 or perhaps a Xeon 1230 v3 or 1231 v3. Sell your old mobo and CPU afterwards.
