Just wait couple of days for the arrival of HD 7850. I've verified in Kolkata shops and as per them HD 7850 is gonna arrive on this week only and the price will be around 15K.

^^You're spreading the good news on each and every thread nah budyy. Anyway thanks for the info.

@OP so it won't take till May. The HD7850 is almost here.

 

[Cilus]

Yes. Also another good news is that Sapphire HD 7870 will be available at 21K price point, 1K cheaper than the MSI Twin Frozer Model. Probably will get one.

 

[RiGOD]

^^Oh that's cool. So goodbye to the 6870 CF? (I know its off-topic but curious to know)

 

[comp@ddict]

I think Ivy Bridge and HD7850 are worth waiting 2 for

>BenQ G2222HDL @ 7600 is a good alternative.

But BenQ G2222HDL does not have hdmi ,isn't it necessary for gaming at 1080p ?

 

[Cilus]

No it is not necessary. It has DVI port and the video quality of HDMI and DVI port is same, HDMI only provides extra capability of carrying digital audio signal too.
But for HD gaming nd video quality both are same.

How many years do you think this rig will survive before i need to change a component or two for gaming at medium settings ?
and, if upgrade is required which are the main components that need to be changed ?

You might need to upgrade the CPU or GPU depending on the future game requirements, but I don't think that will be anytime soon, maybe after 1 or 2 years.

If you upgrade CPU with some other chipset support then you will definitely have to upgrade the motherboard, else it will be fine.

I don't think that the power consumption with newer CPU/GPU will increase as they are getting more efficient now, so your PSU might not need to be changed. But I would suggest you to go for Seasonic S12 II 620 if you are going to OC.

Rest everything will last long.
