Well I'm planning to get the 4th Gen i5 4440 processor and a AMD HD Radeon 7770/7790. I wanted to know which Motherboard should I go for. My budget for the Motherboard is 8000INR (a little over $130).

Since I live in India a $130 piece of hardware is gonna cost about $150-160 (Tax :pfff: ).

So could you suggest something from Newegg, etc which costs you guys about $90.
I know at this buget I can't be demanding, but are there motherboards with 4 RAM(1600MHz) slots at this price range (90 dollars), or SATA 6GB/s ports. But if it is not possible, then it is fine.

Was looking at the Asus H87M-E. But I could use your suggestions. Basically the cheapest for gaming.

P.S. Not planning to Overclock anything. Ever.

You've already named the Asus board that I'd use, but this would be my alternative. This specific board from MSI has gotten decent reviews.

There are two boards that come to mind assuming that processor is an LGA 1150 that are cheap.

I checked the board you mentioned. It is pretty amazing. The price on Flipkart (India's best e-commerce site) is about $120. But the problem is MSI isn't very popular o'er here and they pulled out support from India (so I've heard). Considering this, should I still buy their product.

How about this board for Gaming. http://. It costs almost the same, but Gigabyte is popular in India. Will this product suffice for moderate/heavy Gaming.

I understand what sockets are but could you tell me why differenct chipsets for the same processor? Gigabyte chipset is B85. What information do you gather from this? Should I take this into consideration? If yes, why?

After reading your link Stevo97 I guess I'm gonna go with H87 chipsets. Z87 is out of my budget and since I am not overclocking it wont be necessary. Between Asus and Gigabyte, what say you?
