Not too Weak in what way? Since your i5 is not overclockable, literally any lga 1150 motherboard will work. What do you need? How many pcie slots do you want? Do you want it to support SLI? What form factor does your case support. Are you looking for any spacific colors? How many sata ports do you need? Do you need on board wifi? How many USB ports do you need on it?

I getting a 15-4460 and already have a gtx 970 wind force 4gb so I was wondering what's a good motherboard to go along with the CPU preferably kinda cheap but also not too weak, Thanks

No motherboard will boost your frames. The only things you may be missing out on budgeting, is overclocking and RGB. You don't have a overclockable chip, so don't even bother. Any motherboard should work. It really just matters how many PCI-e slots you need.

That cpu determines your mainboard choice to a LGA 1150 board. The cheap, but sufficient, chipset for which you should look out is H-81.

 

Look out for something like the Gigabyte GA-H81M-S2V or GA-H81M-H. Those two should do the job and they are both about 30-40€ on Ebay

Then what cpu do you recommend with the gpu, just less than 250 and a motherboard to go with it that's less than 200
