And what PSU is that?
The older CX-500 or the revised CX-500v2?

at the time of intel's 3xxx gen proccy release, Corsair had EOLed CX series. so it should be V2 ;)

The price of Sapphire HD 7870 is 16.3K including tax + Shipping charges which will be around 100 to 150 bucks. You can also check the site mdcomputers.in for it.

HD 7870 is better than GTX 660 .. so no point in going for a GTX 660.
