Thanks. Getting this RAM as well - *www.amazon.com/G-Skill-PC4-24000-3...01IW7Z66U/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=
Could have gone for better maybe. But its good.

Gonna get mobo locally for warranty, because that is most likely to have issues
Zeroed in on Msi B450M PRO-M2 MAX Rs. 5.5k on Buy Msi B450M PRO-M2 MAX at Best Price in India - mdcomputers.in

Upgrade done :) Got the gigabyte mobo as suggested.
The results are as expected, no major change in everyday performance. However minimum FPS have gotten a LOT better. red dead 2 used to hit 15 minimum, now its 30+ :D . There were also rare stuttering.. In the game 'Control', loading times were very slow earlier, which was a deal breaker since I die a lot in that game. Now loading times are so much saner.

Overall its good, upgrading is fun. But its interesting to note the i3-3220 is still fantastic for everyday use.
Special thanks to @whitestar_999 and @SaiyanGoku for their suggestions
