560Ti would be 12-14k depending on the model. Pair it with Corsair GS600 for 4k and the expenditure will start moving towards 20k. Moreover, your dual-core CPU may bottleneck some games.

State your budget if you want to go for 560Ti and other upgrades (like RAM).

Yes you can use hawk with your current config. but you will see a huge bottleneck in cpu intensive game like BBC2, even with hd6790 or gtx550ti.

Corsair GS600 would be ideal choice for gtx560ti as said by skud.

560ti is way better than a 550ti. MSI 560Ti TFII/OC would be 15k and Corsair GS600 would be 4k. HAWK should be priced higher. Other option is to opt for a 560 (non Ti) or Radeon 6870. These would cost around 12k and together with the SMPS would be within your budget.

I have corsair vx450 psu and gtx560(non-Ti).The psu has only 1 pcie power connector but 560 requires two connectors.So I am using molex to pcie convertor.How should I connect the molexes:
1)plug in only 1 molex to psu cable.
2)connect both molexes to one psu cable.
3)connect both molexes to two different psu cables.

Sticky threads are meant to be read by everyone.

What d3p5kor has said is right.

Is it just me or the GPU prices are soaring?

HD6670 MD1GD5 is @ 6.4K while HD6770 MD1GD5 is @ 6.8K (might be updated soon)

Come to think of it, I just saw it as 5.6K 3 days ago. (and that was high to begin with).

They had goofed up data. Clarified & fixed.

Would suggest you to stick with GS600 at 4k. Other options are SeaSonic S12II 520W @ 3.5k, Corsair CX500 V2 @ 3.1k, or FSP Saga II 500W @ 2.2k. Take your pick.

For graphics card, go for the one which will be available cheaper if you are getting the base model. ;)

Performance wise both are almost same. But HD 6870 has lower power consumption and lower temperature on load. So it can be overclocked with more ease.

Both have EXACT same performance. EXACT, and I mean it. HD 6870 has the lower power consumption though.

PSU? Seasonic S12II 520w would be my choice.

Check this model:-

TheITWares - One Stop for all Gizmos!HIS IceQ X H687QN1G2M Radeon HD 6870 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Graphic Card


I think at 11.1k it's the cheapest 6870 with a custom cooler.
