After much research, have come up with just these boards based on my feature (max.dimm & pci slots) & price ..
1. The Intel DH67CL with 4 pci slots, 4 dimm slots & usb 3.0 @ 5600 rs/-
Intel® Desktop Board DH67CL
2. Asus P8H67-M LX with 2 pci slots, 2 dimm slots & no usb 3.0 @ 6000 rs/-
ASUSTeK Computer Inc. - Motherboards- ASUS P8H67-M LX
3. Asus P8H67-M LE with 2 pci slots, 2 dimm slots & usb 3.0 @ 6400 rs/-

Thought the Intel boards would be costlier but surprisingly it appears a tad cheaper with better features.
Which one do u feel i must choose..
karthik316_1999, why are you keep saying AM3 socket is obsolate?? You can't find a cheap Asus AM3 mobo supporting AM3+ PU does not mean that it is obsolate. There are plenty of sub 5K AM3+ ready AM3 mobos are available from MSI. Gigabyte, ECS etc.
No.., this wasn't the reason cilus..!
Said so considering the fact that the Bulldozer cpu's would slowly move towards the fm2 platform.. Hence, i meant am3 as obsolete keeping in mind its future upgrade ability. Even read your comment in one of the threads where-in you've said, the am3+ support is being offered only to help the slow transition to the bulldozer, the release of which has been talked for years altogether now..
Do correct me if im wrong, cheers
