Thanks.
Can you please provide a link for HD7870? On FlipKart it's 20k. I wonder if there can be 4k difference!

And what are major differences between the ASUS and Gigabyte motherboards you suggested, considering the 2k price difference. Which among these is more reliable and has better A.S.S.?

I also have a Elite 310 lying around with me and might just use it for this PC, it's not final though. If I use that, where should the remaining 2k be put to use? Or just save it?

PS: Since many people are asking this - My PC is working perfectly and I have no plans to upgrade. This is for my cousin.

@ 20K GTX 760 is much much better
I doubt whether Antec VP450P can handle 7870
Better get Seasonic S12ii 520

Instead of antec vp450p, get corsair cx500v2 or seasonic s12II 520 W depending on your budget.

This one is even more expensive on flipkart.

Please provide links from where you quote the price.

Most members quote prices from mdcomputers.in or local prices. Visit several local shops before buying anything.

Oh, ok.
Both 660 and 7870 are 17k on mdcomputers.in

Thanks.

Not sure about the gigabyte mobo, but Asus one is quite good.

if you have saved 2k , then better get 7870 XT at 18k or may be lower along with seasonic s12ii 520 although antec vp450p can handle 7870 without any problem. Its power consumption is very little higher than 650ti boost and performs much better.
