or Sapphire HD6950 2GB @Rs.14000


Total- Rs.14800 or Rs.19500

How much you want to overclock? If you could extend budget by 3k(i.e make it around 33k) you *might* be able to fit a i7 2600k with a aftermarket cooler :wink:

Nice one Bro but You forgot to accommodate Monitor. with dell ST2220 at 8.1 K +14.8 K = 24 K but my first go budget is 18K (max 20K) think I need to cut down on GPU a bit. Is Sapphire 6770 1Gb is good choice at 7.1 K with FSP saga II 500 W @ 2.3 K ? this way 1.5K+2.3K+7.1K +8.1K = 19 K in total.:sad: pls Suggest

Also i don't need DVD RW

If you are planning ona HD Monitor atleast get a HD6850 or GTX560. Which will get your budget to 21k but worth it in long run.
HD6770 is "Decent" Card but not for HD Res with Eye Candy.

I would say get a GS600 to be on a safer side. FSP Saga 500W will be sufficient but it will be left with very little head room.

Getting Cooler Master Elite 335 @2450 And Sapphire Radeon 6770 IGB DDR5 Flex Edition @7000
Options here at Jaipur are very limited :(
Already Overclocked My Dual Core to 3.2 GHz shall I go for 6770 or its better to get 6670 like Mr. Officer (trust both of us same case (IE proccy & Mobo). I may Upgrade My Proccy & mobo in coming months to core i5)

Brazen, try to get HD 6850 or GTX 560 (non Ti) version for good gaming experience in 1080P or Full HD resolution. Otherwise you have to lower the details for the current demanding games. Currently Filpkart is also keeping Graphics cards, you can buy from there also with the COD option. If you are in tight budget, try to get the HIS HD 6790 1GB GDDR5 version @ 9K
Flipkart: HIS AMD/ATI Radeon HD 6790 GPU 1 GB GDDR5 Graphics Card: Graphics Card
