In Gigabyte card...there is noise problem with fans..
Newegg.com - GIGABYTE GV-R785OC-2GD Radeon HD 7850 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card
There is solution as well
1) The vibration comes from a flimsy piece of plastic under the fan closest to the video ports. If you loosen the three screws that hold that fan in, lift up the fan and push on the plastic, you will feel how loose and flimsy it is and that it doesn't quite touch the aluminum tightly enough. If you shim a piece of electrical tape that's been doubled a few times under this piece of plastic, the vibration ceases!

I never bought anything from stores other than SMC...But they don't have Sapphire 7850 (as per their site)...Should I go with Gigabyte or ask them to arrange Sapphire 7850 ?

^^ Sapphire one has a really great cooler whereas the cooler on the HIS is not that great. In our Indian weather conditions it's always wise to get the coolest card you can, whether you wanna OC or not. And of course for OCing a good cooler is required thus the Sapphire is the obvious choice. Even I'm getting one personally today or tomorrow

HIS ICeQ models are all good,though I'm yet to see their other IceQ HD7850 model here in India.

There won't be any 660ti like the existing 560ti.
670ti would release in Q3,2012.
Give some proof to justify your claim. Afaik, it will be 660-ti as 670-ti sounds like an upper version of 670 which isn't possible.
Gk106 will feature 660-ti and 660.

Yes but don't oc your cpu too much. But if you have lot of hdds, i think you should upgrade your psu later!
here you go :
*www.msi.com/product/vga/#?fp=Radeon HD 7000 Series&sk=Radeon HD 7850
if possible get the Power Edition
+1 for sapphire HD7850. bought it 10days back from hardwire.in
very silent and runs very cool(just 5c above ambient on idle and around 45~50c on load)
get it from hardwire.in or mdcomputers. itdepot doesnt stock new or high end graphic cards that quickly and they sell at premium rates.

There is a price difference of 0.5k between OC and non OC versions of Sapphire 7850. Both come with same cooler, so i'd say buy the non OC one and OC it when you need. Though you won't need to OC right now.
