Well the good news is you can pick up a very inexpensive board now, even a used one, and it will be compatible with the latest CPU. I bought my motherboard July of 2017 and will be upgrading my CPU to a Ryzen 3000 after 7/7 launch.
It's been 24 years since you could use an Intel or AMD processor on the same motherboard and some people just can't get over it.
