Both 7.1 ch & onboard graphics wont be possible. But go for RS480M2. Specs are pasted below:

4 DIMMs w/ DDR 400 upto 4 GB
1 PCI-E 16X; 3 PCI; 8 USB
6 Ch. Audio; 10/100 LAN; IEEE 1394; RAID; SATA; ATA133
ATI Radeon Integrated Graphics, 1 x S-Video port, 1 x Composite TV-Out
Live Update

Its 939 pin board. Looking at yoru requirements, it looks like the best thing you can buy at 5000/-.

MSI Rs 480 isnt a good overclocker and it may give some prob if Nvidia gfx cards are added later but if u r not a overclocker nor have any plans of adding any (nvidia )gfx cards then this mobo may be suited for u .

WHOA dude, please go through my post once again. What I am trying to tell is that you cant get both 7.1 & onboard graphics card.
