Tell me ur PSU.

I suggest:

MSI HD4850 1GB @ 9.5k

All you have to do is raise the ore to 700MHz from 625MHz, and memory from 993MHz to 1100MHz, and the card will beat GTS250's highest OCed card in the market!

MY PSU is Cooler Master 460 W

I need only NVIDIA based GPU

 

[hell_storm2006]

Well if its Cooler Master Real Power 460W then its ok. Is its Extreme Power then be a bit worried. You can go for GTS 250. But now you can get GTS 260 at 11K so its best if you can go for that. Otherwise within your budget I would suggest HD 4850 Sonic. Preferably MSI, Palit or Sapphire. N for the nVidia one's XFX, Plait or eVGA.

460W, well, buy a 9800GT instead for 6.5k.

SO shall i go for XFX GTS 250 here the dealer says that it costs 10.5K in Chennai

this is my Power Supply Model Pleez check it our whether it is capable of handling XFX GTS 250

for 10.5K u will get Zotac GTS260 Core 216. But u will need at least a Corsair VX450. Antec EarthWatts 650SLi or a Glacial Power GP 650W @4.8k is wat recommended for a GTS260. Even for GTS250 you will need VX450, I doubt it will run smooth on a EP 400W

+1
GTS 250 @ 10.5k is not all worth.
GTX 260 or 4870 are b/w 10.5 and 11.5k.

[hellknight]

10k+ shipping from lynx

 

[g_suresh_mps]

so shall i go for GTX 260 Zotac from lynx ???

 

[dOm1naTOr]

ofcourse go for it. Even other brands like Palit is for 11k or somethin.
its far far far better than a GTS 250.
GTS 250 has 128SP while GTX 260 has 216 SP.

 

[j1n M@tt]

wow gr8 deal from Lynx!! btw wat abt the PSU u r going to use??

 

[g_suresh_mps]

Now i use Coolermater Expreme power 460 PLUS

I may upgrade to CM 600 if i go for GTX 260

 

[comp@ddict]

^^^

I suggest get one of these:
Corsair VX450W @ 4.1k
Zebronics 600W Real Power @ 3.9k
Tagan Stone Rock 600W @ 3.9k

Get one of these, or:
Cooler Master Real Power 550W @ 5.8k
Corsair VX550W @ 5.8k

Your choice really.

 

[j1n M@tt]

^^nah, all too costly

get any of these:

Antec Earthenware 550W @3.2k
Antec EarthWatts 650SLi @4.8k
GlacialPower GP-AL650AA @4.3k

 

[comp@ddict]

Antec EarthWatts 650SLi @4.8k
GlacialPower GP-AL650AA @4.3k

I think COrsairVX450W is cheaper than 66% of the options that you have provided.

[j1n M@tt]

but VX450 @4k comes no where near EW 650SLi and GP-AL650AA, the only problem is their availability....It is now available at Lynx.
