Only for gaming 6850 will be a good choice as it uses DX11. Else go with GTX460.

It is said that ati 6850 is best for eyefinity and nvidia 460 is best for Physx. i dont want eyefinity. Should i still go for ati 6850.?

and how to measure FPS ? What minimum FPS are required for smooth gameplay with all settings on.

Get 6850 ...
Min. fps, anything above 30 is good
Measure fps using Fraps

^^ What is your new budget? In the above post, you have mentioned 50-55k. If thats your budget then the above configs mentioned are very good and highly recommended.

Else, update your budget and post.
