You may buy a Nvidia Quaddro card later(in the 2nd or 3rd year) when more intensive CAD work shows up.

I couldn't find the R7 250x that too for 7000
Ita just on snapdeal for 8.5k
Fk has the R7 250 for 6.4k
Much difference between these two?

- - - Updated - - -

And could you tell me which one of the fx6300?
Snapdeal has a 3.5 and a 4.4ghz version
Both priced identically

cheapest i could find is SAPPHIRE GRAPHICS CARD R7 250X 1GB DDR5 (R7 250X 1GB DDR5 - 11229-00-41G - 840777065860 - 10,985.00). you may get a better deal locally. r7 250 is not a replacement for 250x.

But both the R7 250x and the R7 250 are given differently. Let's hope they are what they look in the picture
