^^ what PSu do you have - brand and model no. ??

IF it's some local brand you'll have to buy a decent PSU first.

FSP Saga II 400W PSu @ 2k + Sapphire HD6770 @ 7.4k

Yeah GTX 460 is better than 6770/5770

Check reviews:- GeForce GTX 460 768MB Bad Company 2 Performance | bit-tech.net

and u need a certified power supply, before u get a good GPU... that vip won't do...

Zotac Geforce GTX 460 768MB


Check this... local prices may be lower...

Get it from smc @ 8950 only :- Zotac Geforce GTX 460 768MB

Dont get it for 10.3 K / U can get a 6850 in that price range...

And if u dont get fsp saga u can try corsair ones, but will exceed ur budget...

sair CX 430 is available in mediahome.in @ 2.2K. Get it. If you are spending 10K. then no point to go for GTX 460 1 GB. Get the Sapphire / MSI HD 6850 1 GB instead.

No, ATI cards don't support PhysX, it is proprietary features of nVidia. any nVidia cards starting from 8000 series and having at least 32 stream processors can run PhysX.

Go for Ati 6850 as said by Cilus.Or if you can stretch your budget by 2k you can get Ati6870.

But can we install PhysX system software on any ATI AMD cards? Sorry this may sound stupid but I've never tried this.

Yes and no. Let me explain.

nVidia phyx requires nVidia gpu to run, but nvidia locked it down so even if you have a nvidia card for physx but use ati card for gaming then phyx will be disabled, a hack bypasses this and allows you to use nvidia card for phyx while using ati card for gaming, but to run phyx you must have a nVidia card(8 series or above with 32 cuda cores and 256MB mem)

If you can afford HD 6850 @ 9.4k and still want to buy NVIDIA card just because it supports PHYSX, then you really are losing a better deal
