FYI the OP is outside the US, see post #8, so the cheapest parts in his area will probably be different.

I would definitely go with Ryzen.
Let us know from where you will buy? link to online store should be very helpful.

Another news about AMD and Intel's future motherboard.and chipset.
H310 boards look interesting for budget build.

I'd still try to find a surplus or used socket 1155 motherboard with a Z68 or Z77 chipset. I'd even consider a price-tag up to $100. Less is better, of course. But you could then start saving money for the latest parts of a new system. And you could hold off pulling the string for the new system as long as you'd like.
