Sell your current monitor. tis will fetch you another 4-5k, increasing your total budget to 28-30k. Then get Zotac GTX760 and Dell S2240L.

You can easily get HD 7970 for your budget.

i think it will be an overkill isn"t it?

Yes it will be. Why do you don't want to upgrade the monitor when you can easily accommodate a FHD monitor and along with 760 in your budget?

as i dont think i will see any better quality in gaming isn't it?
plus many said i have a weak mobo,PSU so i think i can make sure i can power my new gpu without any problem.

Motherboard is good if you don't overclock. You may also sell the spu and get a new one. See, you have avery good budget and parts that can be easily sold. With the increased budget, you can easily get a FHD monitor, a better PSU and a very good graphic card.

Get Sapphire hd 7950 Vapor-X at 24.5K from mdcomputers.in

You'll easily get 30+ fps at highest settings at those res. You might've to overclock the card a little for future gpu hungry games.

Get GTX 760 from Zotac as it performs similar to 7950 Boost but available at far cheaper price. For PSU, I suggest you to get a new one like Corsair GS600 or Seasonic SS12II 620.

get the 760 cheaper than 7950 pperforms similar

regarding overkill today's ultra rig is a SLI rig not single card.

Yeah, get a better PSU coz my pc sips above 350W at full load and getting a 620W unit is safe.

I'm not sure how it'll perform, but it's better than what CM used to have in past years. Still you could give it a try without overclocking the card.

so which one to go for gtx660 or add 8k more inc psu and go with 760

if you will upgrade your monitor to full hd resolution later, gtx 760 is the way to go. Otherwise gtx 660 will suffice for your current resolution.

Nopes. None of the pure Online hardware shops provide COD AFAIK. But they re very reliable.
