So my motherboard just got damaged somehow, (today it stopped working and out of warranty)

i m using i5-3330 which has 1155 socket

The following are the two motherboards that were easily available and cheap
They only have a difference of Rs300(approx 5 usd) but i wanted to know is it worth it to get the H81m over H61m for extra 300 bucks or not.

Also i've only considered Asus as their service centre is close and i hear they provide the best service.

H81m

Solution
The motherboard must match the socket of the processor. LGA 1155
Asus customer service sucks just like the rest of them.
I would first borrow a power supply and try that in your PC.
