Initially GTX 680 was performing better. But after the release of Catalyst 12.11 Beta Driver, AMD cards have got upto 20% performance boost and now HD 7970 performs similar to GTX 680 and the 7970 GHz edition perfoms better than GTX 680.
The stock speed of HD 7970 normal or reference model is 925 MHz whereas the GHz edition runst at 1010 MHz. So basically any HD 7970 overclocked version with clock speed higher than 925 MHz and closer to 1000 MHz will perform slightly better than GTX 680.
Now you can get a factory overclocked version of HD 7970 within 30K whereas the stock 680 will cost you around 32K. So HD 7970 is a better choice, both performance and price segment. The Sapphire HD 7970 OC has a clock speed of 950 MHz and can easily overclcoked to 1000 MHz, resulting better performance. You will find the card around 28.5k including taxes in Kolkata.

SMC , though they havnt got listed on their site but they can get you if you order after having a word with them. The Blue is very limited in supply the 1TB variety. The other way around is to go through Neoteric or Ingram.
Pointless to have a great CPU and motherboard but a weak GPU compared to a HD 7970 based balanced gaming rig.
I have mentioned an AOC IPS panel 23 incher its a good one around Rs 12K.That Dell ST2420L is a TN panel. Dell ST2440L with a VA panel at 13700 is way better than that.
Better get the 990FX than a AMD 970 anyday if going for AMD. Better get a good Headphone for gaming and movies like the Corsair Vengeance™ 1500.

Thin Treble, big bass. Stay away from them. There are better options at that price point. If you can get them for Rs 4000 great otherwise the way they are priced here in India better give them a miss. And mind you they are open cans! What do you want the cans for movies or music? What kind a sound signature do you like, warm sweet? or upfront attacking? laidback?

ASUS ROG Vulcan ANC Pro or Corsair Vengeance 1500 ...look no further. The Asus is compared to a AKG 701 !!! Can you imagine that??? If that is true its a very big compliment,very very big. I owned a 701 around 2008/09 and I know how good they are with acoustic and vocal pieces,the midrange and detail retrieval. Now the AKG costs over Rs 20K in India while the Asus is Rs 5.5K thats what got me so excited!!! Now I have to hear them (Asus) come hell or high waters!!!
