any comparisons on net ?

plenty, here are a few from my favorite site:
techPowerUp :: ZOTAC GeForce GTX 460 Amp! Edition 1 GB Review :: Page 1 / 35

techPowerUp :: MSI GeForce GTX 460 Cyclone OC 1 GB Review :: Page 1 / 35

difference is around 10-15%

you could even opt for an SSD, or just send me a cheque ;)

Compared to outside, ATi HD 5850 is only ~2-2.5k more than GTX 460 in India.

MSI HD 5850 is available for 15.5k. [Nehru Place]

since you are not into oc, getting phenom 2 x6 is a waste, a big waste for gaming. i5 760 at the same price is much better. getting phenom 2 x4 is also another good option. since you can extend your budget to 55k get this -

Phenom II X4 955 3.2GHz B.E. @ 7.8k
Gigabyte GA-880GM-UD2H @ 4.5k
2 * 2GB DDR3 1333MHz @ 5k
MSI GTX 470 @ 19.5k (even better than hd5850)
Seagate 1TB @ 3.5k
LG H55N DVD @ 1k
Corsair VX550W @ 4.7k
CM elite 430 @ 2.6k
BenQ 22" G2220 Monitor @ 7.5k

Total - 56.1k

^^ go for HD5850 OC (Sapphire Vapour X, Gigabyte SOC, etc) or go for HD5870 when price comes down a bit. hope it does in near future. DAMN !!! AMD making a lot of cash nowadays.

GTX470 is a totally bad card. even if found for 18k. also expect market price to be a bit lower on AMD samples than from Nvidia GPUs. this is the usual trend.

you might wanna look at this : GTX 460 price cuts

GTX 460 768MB : $179 (down from $199)
GTX 460 1GB : $219 (down from $229)

The GTX 460 768 just might just come down as low as 10k flat. Not worth spending 5k for the 5850 IMO, just 15-20% faster, 50% more costly.

the GTX 470 is a nono IMO, too power hungry and hot.

see hardware discussions section and gtx470 thread and read the temps

IMO once you get a good cabby and a solid psu nothing goes wrong..vx550w will be enough to power it. and gtx 470 beats the hd5850.

just went through a few on AT, I dont think you can call it an absolute win for the 470, they are more or less same in most benchies, the 470 is faster in some.It is up to OT what he wants..
Btw, according to AT's review, a GTX 470 consumes some 10W less than a 5850 in SLI ;)
