The only particularly relevant spec is the one he already gave, he wants to run a 9600k. @gavin66, to get the most out of a 9600k you'll want a Z390 board so you can overclock, and there's a grand total of one Z390 board currently available on PCPartPicker under $110 ($109.99, to be exact). There's a fair number in the $90-100 ballpark on eBay though.
The chipset Z390 seems unnecessary with a 9600k speed. A Z370 would be even more difficult to locate, and he may need to upgrade the BIOS to support the CPU.
