I would like to also suggest HD 6850*2 Crossfire as your GPU.It would cost about 19.5 - 20k and would gove more performance than GTX 570.

Look at this benchmark of GTX570 V/S HD 6850 Crossfire
AnandTech - Bench - GPU11

yeah 6970 would be good. But I still think HD6850x2 would be better (but it would consume slightly more power but that wont matter.)

Maybe you should take a look at AMD Bulldozer it is coming out on mid OCTOBER (Hope so!!)as you would be buying about mid october.

Anyway in the end it's your choice

It will come in mid oct but it will come in india even later like end of oct or starting nov.

Any particular reason for "really want to avoid ATi" ?

I was of a similar mindset and posted the same in my PC config request but ended up buying 6970 since it is better than the 570 by nvi.

But if you have found Ati to be genuinely defective then do share your thoughts with us. It would help in our future purchases and recommendations.

my suggestion -
