Looking for a mobo recommendation for FX6300.

Budget: <$75 (MIR is fine)

Need one dual fan headers since I'm running the 200R case.

One that allows for future expansions/upgrades would be ideal.

what do you mean by expansions and upgrades?

If I wanted to install multiple pci-e devices (e.g. gpu, wireless card, etc.), explore OC'ing/water cooling, stuff like that...but honestly I'm probably not going to be playing anything crazy.

I recently bought the

GIGABYTE GA-78LMT-USB3 (rev. 6.0) AM3+ AMD 760G
but it
1) doesn't have two hookups for the dual fans on the 200r
2) the connected fan doesn't spin even though it's connected

so i'm thinking about returning it.

Buy a fan hub, much cheaper option and you can add more fans to it.

This also works if you just need it for two fans.

1 - read a few reviews that said the gigabyte mobos are ancient with weak BIOS - thoughts?

2 - still no idea why my rear fans aren't spinning
