Performance difference - 5770 is certainly better but dunno how much exactly.
Price - One can get Sapphire HD5770 for 8k.So the difference is 3.6k.

HD5670 = HD gaming at max.
HD5770 = Full HD gaming at max.
HD5750 = useless card at bad price. good for HD gaming.

Given that you are using a FullHD display, get HD5770 atleast if you are planning to play most of the new games. NFS Shift was heavy on GPU, so I think NFS HP too would do the same.

I assume its full HD.Well if it is & you wanna play at full HD resolution then think of a card not less than 6850.The higher(powerful) the better:D..

^^I had some idea about 9800GT's performance some 8-10 months back but now I don't remember much.But from what I can recollect its performance is somewhere around 5670,can't recollect which 1 leads though.But the difference aint significant.

9800GT is a little faster than HD5670.

You can go for the 1gig version as u mentioned your budget is up to 6k, but honestly dont expect to be playing games on high settings with the 5670 on a 22" monitor, its adequate to play all games but dosent set the world on fire, have experience with 512 version on a 2 yr old 17" monitor.

If i were you would save up some more and go for the Zotac GTS450 which sells for around 7.5k here *techshop.in/store/zotac-nvidia-gef...card-buy-online-india-p-6674.html?cPath=320_4

I think better than 450 would be 5770 as 5770 can be had for 8k!!

1GB falls in ur budget so go for it...however there is hardly much performance difference between 512mb and 1gb.
