MSI PE it is. Thanks guys, will be ordering this weekend. :)

@rajesh, how long did the shipment take?
Depends on the courier. SMC are quick but since they are based in Delhi, it might take some time for you. Around ~5 days imo.

if u choose surface express(300/-) it will take 5 days. normal(100/-)will take more than a week.

i had a bad experience with them. on 25th july around 9pm i placed order. next day morning around 11.15am they called me to confirm the payment. i replied, will pay tomorrow. again next day same time they called, i didnt answer. after a hour i called them and enquired about price and stock. they said 16600+300 shipping. but the price in their website is 16800, i informed about it , they immediately updated the price. same day i made payment and send them payment details. after that they didnt contacted me regarding payment and shipping details.packaging, its a worst, they just covered with carton box(just two cartoon sheets taped as box) nothing inside the box to protect the graphic card.graphics card box seal is opened and no crossfire bridge connector inside. contacted them, they said all the boxes are opened and none of them has crossfire bridge connector.

hope the same will not happen with you.

Woah! that's kind of lame to not have a crossfire link inside and opened boxes? WTF? One of the best things about buying any electronic item is the joy of unboxing. Not even gonna order from them if that's that case. :-x

Did anyone else experience similar shortcomings with SMC international?

Oh if Flipkart had this card available i would give those extra bucks to have a safe delivery. These sort of events really make you admire the Flipkart delivery system.

Yes, the local dealers (The whole of Ritchie Street) have only ASUS and XFX available and both cost more than 19K. :|

contact golchhait, they had asus and sapphire. asus 16800/- and sapphire 16225.

Now i have it fixed in my mind that i need a MSI PE. :( Why would i get Sapphire non OC when MSI PE OCed to 950 is available for a cheaper rate. I am thinking of asking my cousin who lives in Delhi to go check the card out directly and maybe he can buy it and courier it to me. :-?

Would you mind posting some images of your card and some screenshots/video of the games you play? There aren't many videos on MSI power edition on youtube plus i would like to see the quality of the product SMC supply.
