Hi, I need a new graphic card (for my friend). The budget for graphic card is 17k. here is the PC config:

FX 8350
Asus M5A97 R2.0 (non EVO)
G.Skill RipjawsX 1600MHz 4 GB RAM
WD Blue 500 GB HDD
Corsair GS500 or Seasonic S12II 520W (depending on availability)
NZXT Gamma
Dell S2240L

I have decided to get him an HD7870. Here are the shortlisted variants:

Gigabyte AMD GV-R787OC-2GD 1.0 2 GB GDDR5 Graphics Card (Gigabyte AMD GV-R787OC-2GD 1.0 2 GB GDDR5 Graphics Card - Gigabyte: Flipkart.com)
Sapphire AMD/ATI HD 7870 2GB GDDR5 Flex Edition 2 GB GDDR5 (Sapphire AMD/ATI HD 7870 2GB GDDR5 Flex Edition 2 GB GDDR5 Graphics Card - Sapphire: Flipkart.com)

PS: the config has not been bought yet (but almost finalised), so any changes are welcome :)

or if you want price/performance gpu then get gtx 660.it is just 4-5% behind then hd 7870 and really good for the price (saves 2k) + it will outperform hd 7870 in games like bf3,crysis 3 etc.

I think the EMI option is based on Credit Card right on Flipkart? If it is so he can buy from anywhere and ask his Credit Card Company to transform it in to EMis.

there may be charges from the cc company to convert into EMI check with them the options
let's say I am the XBank & you have a credit card of my bank.
Now you purchase something from MD Computers. Now i will pay MD Computers the full amount.

Now you(the CC holder) ask me that you need to transform the purchase into EMI, i tell you there will be y% charge if i convert to let's say 6 month EMI & you agree.

^ so is it like that the cc company pays the full amount to the seller and charges the buyer (the cc holder) in installments?

HD 7870 the Asus one. It can be overclocked unlike the GTX660 which is locked.

^^ It has a power limiter (+10%) and clock speeds cannot increase after a limit. Its not like it can't be overclocked but 7870 can be overclocked more.
Actually its not wise to overclock a card to insane levels for a few fps because of longevity issues. GTX titan has no power limiter and can be overclocked far higher resulting in 25 - 30% increase.

for gtx 660, check this:

For titan, check this:

But Gigabytes GPU service policy is tricky. They send it abroad and etc... So take a note of that. Otherwise the card looks very interesting.

^^ See if you can get the sapphire version. 7870 are retailing less than 16k in kolkata (vedant computers).

Incinerator or cilus can help you to bag one.

Adding 500 for delivery, 16.5k for Sapphire is a good deal.
