Judgement Time!!
Hi guys, my MSI GPU 5770 finally gave away after 6 years. I am looking for a new gpu on an urgent basis as my display is gone. My specs are in my signature below. I may also get a new psu possibly seasonic although it's not in Stock.

My usage is mostly movies and gaming. I usually play games at medium settings. My budget is around 10k-11k. Could you guys please suggest a good graphics card. Also please tell me the if the gpu will have sufficient power from psu.

Thanks guys.

Zotac GTX950 2GB -12500,
Or
Sapphire RX460 4GB -12000.

GTX950 is faster than RX460 by significant margin.
No need to go with new PSU as your current Corsair VX550 is more than enough.

If you still want a new PSU then go with,
Seasonic S12II 520w -5000.

How are zotak cards. I have no prior experience with theirs. Any options with Asus/MSI/Gigabyte etc.

Will the seasonic psu be sufficient for future upgrades too?

Zotac offers 2+3years of warranty, if registered in Zotac website within 30 days of purchase.
You will get a confirmation mail which you need to save for future reference.

There is not a lot of price difference between Asus, zotak or gigabyte. Will zotak still be preferred over the likes of Asus. Any significant difference as such?

Cooling wise Zotac 950 is much better. So go with it.

Thanks for all your assistance.. Just one more thing. There is an amp edition which is available too. Is it worth going for it? Or stick to the old one

Zotac GTX950 2GB Amp Edition @ 14k is not worth its price but if you can add another 3.5k you can get Sapphire RX470 4GB Nitro+ @ 17.5k which is much future more proof.

[MENTION=105611]bssunilreddy[/MENTION] i was researching on Zotac cards and it looks like there are different variants mostly with differences in clock speeds etc. There is the 90601 (ZOTAC GRAPHICS CARD GTX 950 2GB DDR5 (ZT-90601-10L), 90602 ( Buy ZOTAC GRAPHICS CARD GTX 950 2GB DDR5 OC (ZT-90602-10M) - Best Price in India, Kolkata - Lowest Price in Online on mdcomputers.i) & 90603 ( Buy ZOTAC GRAPHICS CARD GTX 950 2GB DDR5 AMP EDITION (ZT-90603-10M) - Best Price in India, Kolkata - Lowest Price in Online on mdcomputers.i)
There is a difference of almost 2000 between 90601 & 90602. Is it worth going for 90602 or should i stick to 90601.

Also while reading some reviews, some of the reviewers were complaining that the fan controller is a bit aggressive and thus is noisier than others. Is it true?Should i be worried about this.

- - - Updated - - -

noob question :- wouldn't 90602's dual fan do a better job at cooling than 90601? Is there a significant difference between dual and single fans.

if you are getting a 950, id suggest you do not..
Instead get a RX 460 if its the same price.. if you are getting 950 for under 10k, then get it..

This video should make it clear..
Alternately, just Rs 5k more for RX 470 gives a 100% increase in performance in some games, would say worth it..

Rx 460 is about the same price or slightly higher than gtx 950. Difference seems marginal though. Didn't consider it before.
How much of a difference is there really?

GTX 950 is faster than RX 460 in DirextX 11 titles but way faster than GTX 950 in DirectX 12 titles.
So if we want more future proofing then go with Sapphire RX460 4GB Nitro @ 12k

Thanks but I am not getting the 12000 price point. Most of the sites are selling Asus ones for 14k
