Well, I plan on upgrading my CPU/Motherboard and RAM in the next few months but I was wondering whether I should upgrade my GPU now or later.

I am thinking of buying a new GPU under 10500....
So which one will be "the best" for me? The budget is very strict and can't be stretched :-( ..
Please also, include a link to the specified GPU in flipkart...
thank you.

Flipkart has only cards from XFX at 10.4k which you should not get .. better look for brands like Sapphire, Asus or HiS.
 
hd 7790 at 9.8k

+1 for HD7790. Try to get Asus' card under 10.5k, however, if it isn't available go for Sapphire's card. Asus offers better cooler which will help in overclocking the card.

BTW you'll get lower prices locally compared to Flipkart.

your total budget for everything?

I am planning incremental upgrades. I already purchased a TX650M psu, then I will buy a case and then the rest of the components. Therefore, I haven't thought about the budget yet. Will decide whenever I am ready to buy something.

I feel like a 945G chipset based motherboard is little too old for the gpu so better stick with your cpu+mobo+ram upgrade plan first ... anyway, you may run a R9 270x on your motherboard to let us know if it runs on a pci-e 1.0 / 1.1 motherboard or not :D

generally any 300-350w psu is enough for 7750, for 7770/90 any decent 400-500w psu should do the job though all of these depends on the cpu and the other components you have.

Can anyone compare performance and price(India) of HD7770 1GB and R7 270X 2GB ?
I want 8K card with at least 2GB VRAM.
3GB or 4GB will be better but they will cost sky high I guess.
Please don't suggest GT630 4GB. ;)

R7 260x costs ~11.5k, so 270X will definitely be ~14k. HD7770 is your best bet. BTW 260 has been announced for January-end 2014 launch, so you may want to wait for it.

Thanks for the info. Am most likely buying the Antec VP450P that harshill suggested.

Antec VP450P: Antec VP450P I 450 Watts PSU - Antec: Flipkart.com
Corsair CX430v2: Corsair SMPS CX430 430 Watts PSU - Corsair: Flipkart.com

I recommend Antec VP450P because CX430v2 is overpriced on Flipkart.

Is it a good choice to buy from WELCOME TO MDCOMPUTERS ::::::::::The Ultimate IT Solutions:::::::::: instead ? Am asking since their prices are cheaper.

Thanks in Advance!
