bavusani, it is not like that an older generation card needs to perform poorly than a newer generation card and that's why a GTX 760 which is supposed replace GTX 660 ti can't beat a GTX 680 and the later is much pricier. Similarly GTX 690 is costlier than a GTX 780 which is a stripped down Titan because it is a Dual GPU card, packing two 680 inside it and reasonably faster than GTX 780.
And apart from GTX 780, all the 7 series cards noting but some tweaked version of existing Kepler architecture, powering GTX 600 series. And the changed config of yours, getting a HD 7950 won't help much because it is at the same performance level of GTX 760.
Thanks Cilus for the clarification regarding GPU Series(6or7). But still I cannot decide on whether to take GTX760 or HD7950 as you say they both have same performance where as GTX760 is 3k cheaper than HD7950. I cannot go for GTX770 as it is 32k which is too much for me.
^ FX8350 was 11500 + tax at Ankit Infotech. I bought one last week on friday.
I have no idea on GEn3, but the old generation Sabertooth is 15.2k including 5.5% tax.
Thanks d3p for helping me in this regard...
