If you can spend 13.5K then you can grab a GTX 560 Ti from Zotac. That is the best card at this budget.

Get a PALIT GTX 560 TI from Theitdepot - India's First IT Online Shopping Store . IF you extend your budget to 14500, you can get a HIS HD RADEON 6950 which
Can be Unlocked to a HD RADEON 6970 which is Rs 5000 more

If you are getting 560ti for 11k then thats a good deal. But saving 2-3k more and getting a 7850 is recomended

thetechfreak, I think that card is probably 560 non ti, wrongly named as Ti version.

the_conqueror, If you've a budget of 13K then better save another 2K and get a HD 7850. If you're in hurry then get MSI GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II @ 13.5K from Primeabgb.

How is Sapphire HD 7850 at 15.7k ? I think it is the reference version.

What about your PSU.
You need a good PSU for 7850.

Will MSI afterburner work with a sapphire hd 7850 ? I've heard that most of the 7850s can't be overvolted. Is it true ?

^^ you don't need to overvolt the GPU. overvolt mostly adds heat. nothing else.

please tell whether afterburner would work with sapphire card or not ? Trix isn't that good.

Use ASUS GPU Tweak tool. Way better for OCing HD 7850 than Afterburner.

Afterburner OC on a Sapphire GPU.

use any. i doubt software will make a whole lot of difference for a GPU.

tried it yesterday but for some strange reason I can't change the gpu core volt on HD6850 with this - actually there's no GPU voltage option is visible on the app interface at-all.

why not use Sapphire Trixx 4.3.0.
