My specs
  • Ryzen 5 1500x Processor
  • 16GB DDR 2400 RAM
  • GIGABYTE AB350M-D3H Motherboard
  • ANTEC VP500PC Power Supply
  • Z0tac GTX 1050ti 4GB Graphic Card
  • Samsung 24" 144hz Monitor
This PC is around 3 years old now. I have some cash, wanna upgrade my PC. Since i game a lot, i would like to upgrade the graphic card first.
My budget is around 20,000. (Its flexible). What is the best graphic card i can buy which can run on my Power supply, at this price point.
Also tell me if that GPU will be a good leap in fps from my current GPU.

Can purchase online only. I can order from mdcomputers, primeabgb, amazon, flipkart and other mainstream online stores.

That thing is 225-250 Watt TDP... Same as a GTX 1080. I dont think my PSU can handle it

Yeah userbenchmarks are very misleading. Go for single reputed source like anandtech or LTT

Please don't use userbenchmark as a reliable source of information. :|

It was just a casual reference,correct me if I am wrong but 1650 super seems to be better than RX580 & on par/slightly slower than RX590 with less power consumption & newer tech so isn't this the best option in 15k budget.

1650 Super performs similar to RX580, not 590 based on most benchmarks. It is surely a great option under 15k.

For OP: Buy Zotac GTX 1660 SUPER Twin Fan 6GB GDDR6 at Best Price in India - mdcomputers.in

Although I will ask you to upgrade PSU as well, say Corsair CX550 is a good one.

If you are going to buy 5600XT then buy only sapphire pulse else stick with zotac 2060.
Suggest a medium tier gaming config

On second thought,get zotac 2060.

My vote goes to Zotac RTX 2060 as well. You have to hunt for the higher TDP & boosted BIOS one in case of 5600XT to get RTX 2060 like performance (check the benchmark I attached earlier). Also, 5 years warranty of Zotac after registering is a good advantage for Zotac.

oK, zOTAC IT IS THEN
Don't forget to register the card on zotac India site within 28 days of purchase to get extra 3 years warranty(so total 2+3=5 years). You will get a confirmation email after some days which you need to save as its printout might be needed in future rma.

I have seen Zotac RTX 2060 for 25k a lot of times, just get that when stocks are back:
Buy Online ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX 2060 Twin Fan 6GB GDDR6 Graphic Card ZT-T20600F-10M - in India
ZOTAC GAMING GEFORCE RTX 2060 TWIN FAN 6GB GDDR6

Anyways, I doubt you will get products due to lockdown.

Zotac's rtx 2070 was being sold for 31k a while back whereas the 2060 super was available for 29k. If you can afford them then they are definitely worth considering.
