which ones have best performance? AMD or INTEL?
If this ME/PSP thing matters to you, AMD no-PSP usually have a better performance than Intel no-ME, but Intel with-ME could have a better performance than AMD no-PSP. It all depends on which boards you are comparing between each other. Try to find out how good is the availability of various coreboot boards to you, then compare their performance.
there is any motherboard supplier Coreboot friendly?
There are some manufacturers, i.e. Purism, which are shipping new devices with coreboot preinstalled, but their price of course is higher than for something pulled out of e-waste, and the performance may be still comparable.
where can i get a list? where can i get a cheap board? which boards people prefer, any preference based on statistics?
no-one has the statistics on coreboot installation. If you want a good-supported board, check the board status page, choose a board with a fresh good board status report and read about the known problems on the mailing list before getting one.
is it possible to buy "bare-boards" with only the basic components?
no
external flashing is not hard so not sure why you are trying to avoid it.

There are many more supported Intel-based boards
where can i get a list of all Intel-based boards supported? which boards people prefer and refer as generic boards that usually work? any preference based on statistics?
Additionally, since most of my
boards come out of e-waste heaps, I have no clue about pricing and quality.
besides e-waste where can i get a cheap board? any reference supplier that people recommend for new and refurbished?

flashrom should work fine with most, if not all supported boards.
However, some boards restrict internal flashing (flashing from within the board itself), so you might need an external programmer.
any board that doesn't require internal flashing that is cheap and easy to purchase?
