Socket 1150 motherboards with the 100 series (Skylake chipsets) and 200 series (Kaby Lake chipsets) chipsets are remarkably affordable, having resisted the pressure they faced by the weak trade exchange rates.
Motherboards with the H110 chipsets sell for less than a thousand Rand and high-end Z170 chipset motherboards come in at less than three thousand Rand.
Looking at what Essential IT Solutions has in stock, the AsRock H110M-DVS R3.0 LGA 1150 motherboard supports DDR4 2133, has one PCIe 3 and one PCIe 2 slots, 7.1 channel audio, four USB ports, dual graphic ports, handles 6th and 7th generation Intel CPUs and yet is available at only R899 (or R84 per month on mobicred).
