7870 is better. Price is around 16k-17k in kolkata markets.
I think it could also run on your current psu without any additional load.

Same or similar questions here. Maintain one thread for easier understanding.
Psu for 7850 cf has been suggested and again this thread requires a different power supply for a 7870 cf .

Which gpu do you plan to take now ?

7850 cf : Corsair gs600.
7870 cf : Corsair tx650 v2. This has the power for the setup but not enough 6pin connectors. Buy molex to 6pin adapters.

MSI version is overclocked and is power edition so it has better performance.

Go for the GTX 660 instead of 7850. And if u can extend upto ~ 18k - go for a 7870.
