Hi , I have following configs

Intel Core2Duo @ 2.53GHZ
2 GB DDR2 RAM
500 GB Seagate HD
Acer x193HQ 18.5" Monitor 1366x768 Resolution
MSI G31TM-P21 Mobo
Logitech Wireless Combo
iBall Entizer Cabinet


Since, I am willing to spend Rs 10,000 to buy GPU and PSU, i want you to recommend me the top most Combination of PSU and GPU for my system. I was willing to go for HD 5770, but since the new 6xxx series have arrived, i am little worried for Best Bang for Buck..

Anyway, I would like to have your suggestions for PSU and GPU at approx 10K.

Thanks,
Ashis

MSI HD 5770(7K) + FSP Saga II 500W(2.1K) is a better option....
I would suggest Corsair VX450(3.5K) to b future proof...

I thought all 5770s cost above 8k and hence I recommended 5750. it is without a doubt a much better GPU. if you can extend the budget just a bit, go for it and do get VX450W. it is one heck of a PSU with a 5yr warranty (if i am right)

My budget is 11k max. And I need a graphics card and PSU. Plz suggest the best for me. Heard that GTX 460 is far better than 5770HD but its price is high.
