Need a reasonable 1155 mb for a "box o parts" build.

I need a mb for an Intel I5 1155 socket processor.

I want something reliable, but want to keep it around $100

OC is not really a priority as it's a non K processor. I guess I could play with the fsb a little, but I probably won't go bonkers.

I do need one PCI slot as well as a 16x PCI-e slot. No crossfire or sli interests anytime soon.

ATX form factor is nice, but as long as it fits in my mini tower, I don't care.

This computer will not be a daily workhorse. It' might see some gaming, but I have a p/s and video card that will work.

I have had great luck with Gigabyte, but I'm not brand loyal.

You're going to have very hard to find something nowdays as it's pretty much EoL.
If anything you're probably going to need to look for a refurbish board if you want to get anything that's somewhat decent.

I have an Asrock Z77M. Great board does everything you want it to do. Can even do crossfire/SLI. And some PCI slots.

I have the box and most accessories. Let me k ow what else you need too.

$90 Shipped?

I ended up going a route like this.
I got an "open box" deal on a Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD3H from Ebay. $110 shipped, so it works for me.

I bench tested it yesterday and all looks good so far. The "coolest" thing (from a bench test stand point) as that it had it's own power button on the MB. I had my homemade power switch ready and was about to connect it to the pins. Then, I saw that button and was pleasantly surprised.
