Well all the the mobo are pretty good performer.
So if u are looking for a non-SLI then go for ASUS A8N-E. It is an excellent performer and gives full value for money. And it seems to overclock better than the other two boards. Its priced around 5600/-.

and presuming tht u will go for an additional GFX card as u claim to be a gamer
