Need a recommendation for an LGA 1156 CPU

[OCNewbie]

My friend has this Asus motherboard: Link

and this graphics card: Link

and like 8 gigs of memory, I believe.

Anyway, it's an LGA 1156 socket, and she needs a CPU to complete this puzzle. What would be a good used, or possibly new CPU to look for. She'll be using the computer mostly for graphic design and rendering.

Edit: She'd like to keep the price somewhere between $50-80.

Still beats 8350 in the gaming dept.

In that budget the best 1156 CPU is a core i5. I dunno if a quad will fit the bill though. Perhaps second hand.
