[max_snyper]

Hey guyz ....
i have finalised two cards according to my need.....660ti and hd7870.....Will not be going for stock cards.
Looking for MSI,Sapphire,Asus,Cards......Actually tied up between Msi hd7870 hawk and Msi 660ti pe and Asus 660-ti OC and sapphire hd7870 OC (FK out of stock ...waiting for them to be available again )...
Resolution would be 1080p and 1680*1050.....!
The problem is i could not find these cards in lamington .......will they arrive in this months end....?
For config see my Signature...!

What's your budget? I guess the 660Ti would be a better choice.

 

[vickybat]

Yes 660-ti is the obvious choice for gaming. Besides, 7870 is priced close to 660-ti in india.

You can also check 7950 if available under 25k. After driver updates, its value as increased and performs on par with a 670.

@Skud....No issues what-so-ever down the line (q2-q3-q4..2013) with 660ti
@vickybat....my budget is strictly 20k not a penny more...thats the bar set for me....

And i called primeabgb for msi hd7870 hawk .....their response "not available...and not will be available"...found that response strange...!

 

[d6bmg]

^^ May be because of the fact that prime is getting more profit from Sapphire cards.

@ max_snyper - FK was selling a HD7870 just under 20k and I've heard that price of HD7870 is now around ~18k though nowhere it's available ( at-least not on shops ) at this price .. only some frum mebers can arrange this for ~17k though .. if you want to get it from some shop @ 20k wait a month at-least.

Hey guyz going for the purchase this week end......its gonna be sapphire hd7870 oc or msi hd7870 hawk.....
Not going for 660-ti coz its too overpriced a for now...maximum can go for 21K budget...!
Which ones better and where cna i find hawk...?
can some one provide my the input for msi hawk (more interested in msi hawk...due to superb product)..!

 

[iittopper]

Well you can get msi 660ti PE around 21k

 

[vickybat]

Why don't you go for a 660 (non-ti) card? The Asus DCII 660 is around 18.8k (this month's digit mag) and i think is good value. Its performs like a 7870 and this one is factory overclocked too and has a solid build quality.

Its highly recommended imo.

I am using ati from past 3-4 years but now I am strictly against it due to buggy drivers and very less game supportive graphics. go for green

In a week or two, you will not bother about the minor differences the cards in your range offer.

also I saw that 660 give about 60+ fps for 1080p on BF3 on ultra ..that double .. double the money I paid for my MSI 6850 Cyclone and more than Double the framerates I get with it

And 7870 saphire oc edtn is going for 17.8k..

At that price it seems a no-brainer. Where are you getting the card at that price?

Not a problem anymore. Asus RMA is also now handled by "Comptronics India" and they are doing a fabulous job. Recently Rma'ed my aunt's "Asus Transformer Pad TF300T (Tegra 3)"
as it didn't boot due to a bug in the os (version 4.0.3 ics). It was bought from singapore and i had to claim the international warranty which usually takes time. After two weeks , they replaced it with
jellybean os (ver. 4.1.1) and its running flawlessly now ( google voice is amazing).

I think we should now recommend Asus products without worrying about RMA at all.
