What cpu?

 

Z97 are haswell, and are discontinued.

 

If this is a new build I would suggest going for a z170, and skylake cpu.

How much exactly? right now a skylake build may be cheaper then a haswell due to the prices of ddr4.

When it comes to motherboards, especially on a budget, get the cheapest one and invest the most on your CPU/remainder of components. Literally makes no difference in performance nor cooling :p.

For $800USD this is good.

If you don't care to overclock you can save about $100.

Anything lower and I would recommend another gpu like a rx 470 or 460.
