Some more shops to look online are lynx-india, smcinternational and techshop.in
BTW, what cpu do you have ? Are you planning to buy a new rig a little later ?
Do want to CF 2x HD5770 ? Are you planning to OC your CPU ?
I'm asking all these question coz a 850W psu is just too much for a general pc with a single gfx card, one cpu and 2 hdds and ODD. for that a 550W PSU is sufficient and as well as future proof - so don't even waste 3k as you can get better gfx card like GTX 460 with that money.
for UPS a 650VA one should suffice if you are not gaming when there is power cut and provided you are using a lcd monitor.
do post your hardware config in details.
Thank you

Prime ABGB & SMC International are amazing!
My current configuration is -
Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-M61PME-S2P
Processor - AMD Athlon II X2 240 [2.8GHz]
i am contemplating on upgrading to a quad core processor (preferably the Phenom II X4 965 BE) & a motherboard that supports DDR2+DDR3 memory (i await offerings from ASUS & Gigabyte
)
i also plan on using the CrossFire technology after i upgrade. How much power does one HD 5770 GPU draw?
Sir, you are absolutely right, the 850W PSU will indeed be an overkill.
Hence, considering my future intentions of upgrading, what would be the ideal
future-proof PSU (specific series - CX/VX/TX etc..)?
Also, which model of Kingston memory module should be my final choice?
i intend on running my system on 4GB.
Kingston 2GB Desktop Memory KVR800D2N6 [
KVR800D2N6/2G]
or
Kingston HyperX 4GB DDR2 1066 PC2-8500
[KHX8500D2K2/4G]
i reckon my current motherboard should support the HyperX modules.
As far as the UPS in concerned is this a sufficient choice?
APC Back-UPS BR550CI-IN 300*Watts/550 VA
i have decided to go to Mumbai in the 3rd week of this month & make my purchases!
Thank you all for your valuable advise.
