This page linked here has the supported CPUs listed on it. http://www.cpu-upgrade.com/mb-MSI/H67MA-E35_(B3).html

ebay might be a source for a good used CPU. Pick a CPU from the list and then search ebay and then write down what they are asking and then check others on support list to find one that is the best deal for your money -or- if you can afford the most powerful CPU that is supported then just go with the fastest most powerful ( i7-3770K )

Here is a link to one that I trust that costs a little more than a cheaper one that I trust less. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Intel-Core-i7-3770K-3-5GHz-Quad-Core-CM8063701211700-Processor/153118517958?epid=115980780&hash=item23a6932ac6%3Ag%3APXEAAOSwUv5bXeSe&_sop=15&_sacat=0&_nkw=i7+3770k+cpu&_from=R40&rt=nc

There is a cheaper one with only 2 feedbacks in the sellers history. This seller has 26 feedbacks at 100% satisfaction which costs more.
