i think we should put Zotac GTX 560 2GB SLI for 26k in place of 580 in 3D rig.
Zotac - GeForce GTX 560 2GB: Graphic Cards - Best Price Rs.12,999 - Compare India

That is a very good option indeed. Two 560 2gb non-ti sli is very powerful and may even eclipse a 6870 cf performance.

But i think you should give the gtx 580 twin frozr II as an optional choice in case the 2gb variants are not available. Its the next best choice for the particular pricepoint and good enough for fullhd 3d gaming.

Yesterday i was checking the msi gtx 580 lightning extreme 3gb sli review and boy o boy it decimated the tests even at 5760x 1600 resolutions. Even a 69702gb cfx was beaten handsdown and it consumed 10w less power than a standard 580 sli. But the price was sky high and still the 6970 2gb cf gave tremendous value. It even beat amd in antialiasing performance.

So you see vram does a world of good to multigpu scaling especially in higher resolutions. Both the 580 and 570 are very powerful gpu's but were severely lacking adequate vram.

No, but a single card will be fastest GPU ever, at all resolutions, and the SLI will beat 6970CF by miles which the stock 580 sli beats barely, the extra vram helps, only for multi monitor users.

Exactly, 580 3xtreme 3gb sli is not everyone's cup of tea. Besides a 6970cfx can run all shader heavy titles in a multimonitor resolution and that too with aa on. And the icing on the cake is that you save half the price going for 6970cfx instead of a 580 3gb sli.

But hardocp gave 580 lightning extreme 3gb sli a gold award based on its pure performance and not value. They were not biased at all.

@ jas

Buddy did you read my previous post regarding the suggestion of 580 twin frozr II in the 3d setup as an optional purchase in case the zotac 2gb isn't available? There should be a single gpu setup as an option isn't it?

Gaming Case Roundup - TechSpot Reviews
After Reading This Latest Review It came to a conclusion:
100$ Budget - Lian Li PC-K63 Or CM Storm Enforcer Best
150$ - 200$ - HAF X Or Haf 932 Best

So if Lian LI PC-K63 is a 100$ Case Then Why it is priced 7K @ Itwares?
