If you're sticking with Asus or Gigabyte and avoiding third-party chipsets (nvidia chipsets mostly) you're probably going to have difficulty going wrong.
The thing about multiple slots is that unless you plan to use multiple graphics cards at once odds are youll need PCIE-1x or plain PCI slots a lot more than you ever will multiple 16x slots. Running Sli/Crossfire is expensive and difficult and as far as I know the vast majority of non-graphics expansion cards are still using PCI and a few are now expanding to PCIE-1x. Even my X-Fi soundcard is still old fashioned PCI.
You really don't have much to worry about.
