Wrong PSU choice. Go for Corsair Cx430v2. Should hold everything stable unless you OC.

Need a graphic card and suitable PSU within the range of 10k

@op, it's nice to see that u increased ur budget. 6850 is nice gpu for money. And i personaly don't like CM psu. Look for corsair/antec/seasonic .. Good luck.
@topgear, with due respect i would like to let u know that 6770 is better than 5770 in some dx11. Yes their specs r same but 6xxx serice have better tessellation. chk benches before quote any reply.
And yes i shocked when i saw ur reply. U have suggested OP to buy 6850, but thread name wants gpu+psu within 10k.
There were two psu i suggested to op and a gpu as well. But those r within his budget.(may be 200~300/- extra for 600wt).

^^ HD6770 is better than HD5770 ( I've read the reviews long ago ) - no doubt about this but I've told OP to get either HD6790 or HD6850 which are better than HD5770/HD6770 for playing games at HD resolution
I've quoted your reply and posted the Tom's HW link just to show that HD6850 is best among HD5770/HD6770 and HD6790 ( and HD6850 is the Feb 2012 best buy GPU ) and OP has decided to go with HD6850 now
Coming about the budget HD6850 is available at 8.7k ( check SMC ) and with a Corsair VS450 @ 2.1k the whole deal comes at 10.8k which is 800 bucks more than Op's budget but worth the extra money and now Op is ready spend extra money.

Topgear, HD 6770 is just a re-branded HD 5770 with 3D support through BIOS update. So in games they perform similarly. I don't know what review you're talking about but probably it is the review of the HIS HD 6770, one of the 1st to be released. which is a factory overclocked card and hence p[erformed better than stock HD 5770. Otherwise both the cards are same.

SMC lists the price a lot more
SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 6850 1GB
ITWares is a bit cheaper -
SAPPHIRE 100315L Radeon HD 6850 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Graphic Card with Eyefinity
The MSI R6850 Cyclone 1GD5 Power Edition/OC is and overclockers edition which allows you to overclock and has a great fan for the purpose.You can also do some voltage tweaks.
If the difference is not more the the power edition is the one you should go for.

whenever someone says something about a cheap GPU, first check SMC. they'll have it for such low price. MSI HD6850 & MSI HD6850 Cyclone
you got it right
@topgear, 6850 is 8.7k with tax ?
OMG !! That would be steal !! Can u paste the price link ? I am unable to find that !!
look at the above post ( by Sam ) or here's the links mentioned earlier by OP himself
I'm using the non cyclone edition and managed to OC it well - check my siggy
