Are there really no motherboards out there anymore other than the budget boards?

I'm trying to find a board with 2x PCI-E X16 Slots, More than 2 slots for ram and DDR3.
There's nothing, just a load of sh*t :(

I wouldn't either from ebay.

Once my other rig has gone, I'll scour Bit-Tech and the like.
I don't even want to SLi, I just want a PCI-E 4x slot for a combined SATAIII/USB3.0 card.

Best i could find but still not perfect.
In the same boat as you , would like to upgrade to sata 111 & Usb 3 but have only 1 PCIE x 16 on my mobo.

You can get boards off ebay, and occasionally Bit-Tech but they all want silly money.

I've got one of these in my loft somewhere if it is any good for you
