Re: The Graphic Card Advisor

i think 4650 comes in your price range but 4850 will very good as 4650 is underclocked GC. though its about 1K expensive than what your budget, but its worth the price. :)

Take a trip to Nehru Place. Or send SMC a PM. They are a dealer here.
 
Re: The Graphic Card Advisor

^^ They are mostly going out of stock, as 5xxx series are released. Grab it as fast as you can. Do inquiry of that products online also and not just locally.

Thought so, but I will have to upgrade my power supply as well right? My current power supply gives 18A at the 12V each Techgage - Silverstone Strider ST56F 560W PSU

I am unsure if the power supply can handle HD4850

no. it's around 4.7k. If someone is trying to sell you 9600GT, it's either used one or fake model.

Your first option is a HD4670, you wont have to upgrade your PSU for this..
and for your second option you will need to upgrade our PSU and you can get a 9600gt..
a 9800gt is also available below 6k but it is only recommended if you plan on upgrading your CPU as well in near future..

If a CPU upgrade is no where or very far from now, stick to a HD4670/9800gt..
will play games easily at that resolution..:)
