I am looking for a good GPU for under 12k.

My PC Config:
* Intel i5-2400
* Asus P8H77-M Pro
* FSP APN 700W PSU
* DELL IN2020M HD LED (@ 1600 x 900)

I have shortlisted GTX-650Ti Boost, but cant decide whether to go for 1GB or 2GB model. Is the 2GB model worth it?
I will be buying the card from Gainward as its pricing is way better than other brands.

Here is the Pricing I got for Gainward:

So, which one provides better VFM? Is the 2GB version really worth spending Rs.1200 extra?

And yes, the 1GB variant is the Golden Sample edition and hence has Dual Fans but the 2GB variant is the normal edition and hence has only single fan (The 2GB GS edition is not available here).

Buddy I never heard about Gainward better go with reputed brands that do well in the market like Zotac, Asus. I personally prefer Zotac or Asus. Both of them give not more than 3 years of warranty.

Yup, I know Zotac has 5 years warranty but Zotac is not available here and its 13.3k @ flipkart, completely out of my budget. I am strictly looking for a card under 12k.

Yup, that's my last option. Enquired for Palit GTX-650Ti Boost 2GB with Abacus Peripherals. I got a quote of 16k :shock:
But I want to know the actuall difference between the 1GB and 2GB card. Will the 2GB card be of any use? I mean is it worth spending 1.2k more?

Normally any game will require VRAM not more than 2GB and anything more than that is necessary for Multi-Monitor displays only.
