Before buying Graphics card, please mention what SMPS or PSU you're having.

Performance wise the GTX 560 & 6870 are almost equal, the latter consumes lesser power. Get whichever is cheaper.

Should I go for GTX560Ti or should i wait for the kepler series. Any idea if the Kepler series would be available in market within a month or two? I would be requiring the graphics card only after a month.

after a GPU launches it'll take around 2 month for full availability here. decide according to that.
