I actually will be buying loads of stuff along with this graphics card,but since couldn't post everything at the same place,I divided it up.
The stuff that I have to buy are:-
A> Laptop(I will post in the laptop section)
B>Graphics card
C>Power Supply
D>1 stick of corsair vengeance ddr3(already have one. will add this one)
E> Router
F> External hard disk(500 gb)
G> (If any cash remains)=> Xbox 360 wired controller.

The total budget is 73k(absolutely non flexible).

For the graphics card:-

1. Which Power Supply do you have? (Be EXACT while naming the company and model)
Ans: Will buy either corsair gs600/seasonic s12ii-620(provided seasonic has a service centre at kolkata)

2. What is your budget?
Ans: around 8.5=9k for the GPU

3. Which resolution will you game at?
Ans: Okay do not laugh at this,but I will be gaming at 1280X1024 since I have a 17 inch crt. -__- (Will upgrade entire pc next year). But till next year,I plan on playing games @ultra with the given resolution hence a budget of 9k for such a low resolution. :|

4. What are your current computer specifications?
Ans:

Proccy:- athlon II X3 435 unlocked to phenom II X4 B35
Mobo:- MSI 785G-E53
PSU:- Will buy corsair gs600/seasonic s12ii 620w
ram:- 4 gb(will add 4 gb more so 8gb)
HDD:- 500gb
monitor:- 17 in lg E700SH :oops: :|
Power supply:- APC bask-UPS RS 600

P.S:- Will buy after 5th june and for now I have decided on the msi cylone power edition 6850.
I know the budget is a bit tight for so many components but please try to squeeze them in. X_X Thanks.

If you can find the 6850 cyclone edition now, go for it eyes closed. It is much faster than stock 7770.
One more option is that, if u delay your ram purchase for now, you can easily go for a gtx560 or a 6870

@topgear Okay then msi 6850 it is then.
BTW any other 6850 to look for incase I don't find the msi one where I saw it before?

@saikiasunny yeah but i don't need that much power mate. i just need the 6850 for some ultra level gaming at this crappy resolution for about an year. Will be upgrading entire desktop next year.


P.S:- Please help out at the laptop thread as well. I do have a few questions over there :)

for other alternative HD6850 gfx cards look for manufacturers like Sapphire, Powercolor and HiS and make sure the gfx card has a custom cooler.
