buddy VRAM is not all about performence , check out real world performence...

After checking the real world performace i think the 7950/760 are same at stock speeds and overclocked speeds both. Even though 7950 has extra 1gb VRAM which will help me with newer games 2 years down the line?
Won't a dual channel kit me more effect?
What if i replace the 760 AMP with a 7950 Vapor-X by adding 2k extra? And upgrade the PSU to 620 by adding 1k extra? Will the Overclocking possibility and the extra vram increase performance and future proofing??
I think your previous post [which you editied] about the 6core was a better one. At the moment there is not much difference in gaming between FX 4 cores and 8cores [Saw many benchmarks] when gaming less CPU intensive games , also many people report that Asus m5a97 evo r2.0 will not be able to OC the fx 8core chips properly.
I see you have a similar build [But a very weak GPU indeed] Can you tell me how much does the 8320 overclock on air?
6 core cpu is good enough for gaming provided you OC it 
- performance wise HD7950 vapor-x in boost mode performs similar to GTX 760 - both can be oced to decent level to gain additional performnce though GTX 760 got a upper hand here [ version with dual fan coolers ]. Seasonic S12II 620W is a good choice and if you add 500-700 bucks you can get a better cabby ie Corsair 400R.

I have a Corsair H60 2013 Edition and I am able to overclock fro stock 3.5GHz to 4.0GHz only because my Asus M5A97 R2.0 is a severe bottleneck in overclocking further more.I think if using CM Hyper 212 EVo also 1 can overclock to 4.0GHz anyways but its the MB that's limiting further OC.In my opinion 6 Core AMD FX is much better than a 8 Core AMD FX if using such MB's anyway.

How do i bargain with the people @ lamington?
I am 17years old and i dont look matured enough!
Do they give random people the quotes of the prices at which they are selling ? Also what RMA policies they have?

Thanks for the information bavusani, but as topgear and clius said i'll be going for the EVO version which i believe was specially made for the FX series

Simply buy from reluted shops only(i like primeabgb personally)...
RMA/warrenty will be provided by manufacturere only, in their respective service centres, dont forger to get a invoice/bill

But flipkart gives their own RMA?
Heard from many people if the product isn't working properly they exchange/refund as long as you report to them within 30days of buying!

Flipkart is totally different...
@ lamington road afaik few shops give max. 3 day replacement.
then if your product is in warrenty period you can RMA it to manufacturer.

DIY FTW!
True. Different sellers have different replacement and return policies. The usual 30 day return policy applies only for 'WS Retails' AFAIK.
Thanks but i saw all the prices in the flipkart increased yesterday
Should have ordered before
Sent you a private message.

I went to 4-5shops and tried to get the quotes!
I went to primeabgb aswell but his quotes were expensive and he did not have Asus m5a97 evo r2.0
So this is the cheapest quote i got:
FX-6300 7500/-
Asus m5a97 EVO R2.0 - 7500/-
G Skill RipJaws 2*4GB Ram - 2*2700=5400/-
CM HAF 912 with window - 5500/-
Seasonic S12ii 620W - 5200/-
WD blue 1tb 4000/-
Sapphire 7950 OC with Boost 24,500/- [No one @lamington road has VAPOR-X version ]
Dell S2240L - 8500/-
--------------------------
TOTAL - 68,000/-
Is this worth it?
