i5 9600k reliable atx motherboard help

[towncarblue]

my old pc finally gave up, { asus maximus 7 hero and i7-6700K } lasted a long time.
im now looking to buy a motherboard for my new i5-9600k. i don't care about oveclocking, wifi. i just want a atx motherboard with excellent Ethernet and reliability. i usually just replace the mobo and cpu when one of them craps out
which is usually expensive so the longer the mobo lasts the better it is for me
looking for a good midrange.
not looking to spend over $200. any recommendations ??

I put a Gigabyte z390 gaming into service 01/2019 , with that cpu . Runs perfect and has been on more or less the whole time . $144 at amazon

Looks to be decent, but for a small difference, I'd personally go with this one: https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16813157848

It has substantial heatsinks around the socket (which the one you asked about has none), better caps, and bigger chokes, etc.

This MSI board should be a good mid-range choice as well: https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16813144217?Item=N82E16813144217
