Looking for mobo / case suggestions, other advice
Location: Canada

Current case: Corsair Carbide 500r.
Problem, too large, want mATX on desk

Current mobo is ATX, so need mATX mobo, which seems like a waste since I have an i5-2500k. This thing has been running forever with no problems though, still fast. Don't really feel a need to upgrade yet.
Need to buy new lga 1155 matx mobo for my i5-2500k.

This machine is pretty old now, but still runs very well. Upgraded and or replaced gpu/psu/ram over time. Will eventually swap out mobo/cpu for something better.

Anyone know of any cheap mATX LGA 1155 mobos sold in Canada?

Case ideas? Air 240 looks dope. Don't want flashy shit or rgb*

check ebay/reddit hardware swap for mobo, once you source one that works then and only then buy the case.
