Performance wise HD 7970 GHz edition and GTX 770 Ti are neck to neck in gaming. But compute performance wise, the nVidia product is far behind. Also when overclocked, AMD HD 7900 offers more performance improvement than nVidia 7000 series. The Model, Sapphire HD 7970 Vapor-X edition is already running at 1000 MHz speed, offering same performance of GTX 770 and can be overclocked to gain extra performance.

^ This.

Performance wise a Single HD7970 GHz Edition is better than GTX770 [rebranded GTX680].

It is not just rebranding, it has BIOS update too and because of that performs slightly better than GTX 680. But ya, it is not over 7970 GHz edition.

Even my HD7970 performs similar to GHz Edition with a BIOS Update....But i can't change the names.

which ups should i get?

and what about 4th gen haswell cpu by intel?should i wait or go with amd fx 8350

You can't get the Haswell's into your budget. So go with FX8350 & the config suggested by Ankush28.

Secondly. If you are going with HD7970, then better to stick to APC1.1Kva.

The Gtx 770 is overall 4% faster than 7970ghz edition at 1080p resolutions.

Here's the proof. - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 2 GB Review | techPowerUp

Add to that, there 45w less power draw and the overall build of a 770 is much superior.
770 also has a far better overclock performance than 680 as it has a TITAN like PCB.

7970 ghz doesn't hold an overclocking advantage over 770 anymore. The latter has terrific performance boost with clock speeds, better than 680.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 2 GB Review | techPowerUp

The above should serve as a proof.

770 would be a better choice than sapphire ghz edition. Its even better if some custom overclocked 770's like gigabyte windforce and Asus DC II.
They even widen the gap more from a 7970 ghz.

But Vicky, in Tomshardware and Anandtech review, in most of the new games, they were performing similarly, in some 770 was ahead and in some 7970 GHz was ahead.

Tomshardware tested in 2560x1600 resolution only. The gap narrows down at such high resolutions and neither card allows highest settings at those res.

7970 was only ahead in amd centric titles like dirt and hitman. Dirt uses a special lighting system that works better in amd cards. They are not optimized for nvidia.
Hitman somehow locks fps for nvidia cards as seen in tomshardware. Even titan and 770 give similar fps in hitman and 7970 is ahead.

In all other games that are neutral, 770 has a slight edge and its 4% overall better. Its a lot better than 680 actually.
If 770 can be had at a price similar or lower than 7970, i don't see a point of not considering it.

Besides, a lot of 770 oc models are priced at reference levels.

Check guru3d's review at 1080p. 770 has a slight edge across the board.

GeForce GTX 770 review - Article

It's good to go with GTX770 now, since its a new gen Card. But are they available in india ??

Moreover atleast op need to wait a month or so get the non-reference cards.

IMO let OP decide which card to get, when we all made our points regarding the Performance of both HD7970 GHz & GTX770.

GIGABYTE GV-R797OC-3GD Ultra Durable VGA Series Garphic Card

the only game which uses more than 2gb vram is crysis 3 right now and that only at very high setting. 7970 struggles to keep playable fps at those setting so will any game which will use more than 2 gb vram. The bottom line is 770 is ideal for games which uses upto 2gb of vram.
