Please suggest me the best GPU and PSU for gaming under 12k.

i thought you gave up already?

how about gtx 460 and corsair 500W?
i think that will make total of around 12k.

i dunno whether c2d will bottleneck a 460... but i think it will if you go for that 19" monitor.
better wait for others to post here.

HD5770 @ 8.5k
FSP Saga II 500W @ 2.5k or CX400 @ 2.7k

These PSU's are able to handle the rig with 5770 (hope u r going it to pair this GPU with the one in ur siggy).

Get a 6850 + cx400 as rajan mentioned.
Or for nvidia look at 460 1gb.

U may want to wait for gts550.

then go for 6850 ~ 9.5k + CX400 ~ 2.5k

if NVIDIA, it will go out of your budget say, 460 + FSP 500W ~ 15k
