You're considering whether to upgrade your motherboard or purchase a used one. It seems you're leaning toward buying a used model now, but are finding it difficult to locate one. The question is about the specifications—what RAM speed (mb) would be suitable and where to find a reliable source for it. Thanks for clarifying that you meant new CPU and RAM instead of just the motherboard.

You should check eBay for affordable H81 and B85 motherboards.

Based on your situation, the maximum price you should expect is around $200 to $250 for a used i7-4770 processor.

You can find options starting around $35 to $40. It's wise to verify there are sufficient USB and SATA connections, and that the device includes an I/O shield.
