I would suggest to go for i5 2400 @ 9.5k instead. Pair it with intel dh61ww @ 3.5k instead of h67 to keep costs under check. Its lot better than i3 2100 @ 7.5k.

Core i3-2100 is @ 6k afaik. yup, i5-2400 will again be a much better choice but I'd honestly avoid going for a H61 motherboard.
The motherboard you suggested lacks SATA3 6gbps and only have two slots for RAM. H67 for me is the minimum.

^^ I think people can live without sata 6gbps if costs are a factor. 3gbps is fast enough for people at a budget. They get all the processing power at a reduced cost.
About 2 dimm slots, a person can go for a single 4gb ddr3 now and later can upgrade to another 4gb. 8gb ram is more than enough at least for the current generation of processors for home use.
So it comes down to the buyer on what he wants. If he can sacrifice the above things, i see no harm in going for h61 at lower costs. But yes, h67 is better in the aspects you mentioned above.
