Hey there! For your i5 9900K overclock to 5.0GHz, you’ll want a solid budget motherboard with good PCIe support and stability features. Look for models like the ASUS ROG Strix B550M or MSI MAG B550, which offer strong performance and reliability for that target speed.

It's an i5 9600K. Oh wow, that's a head-scratcher.

Check local used markets for what’s available. LGA 1151 boards are no longer made, so new ones are rare and often sold at steep prices. You might save money by swapping a 9600K for a 12400 or a B760M PG Riptide instead. Possibly you could find a Maximus XI Apex nearby for a better deal, or the only option is an overpriced Z390 UD.
