Graphic Cards sparkle sfpx , evga geforce ,bfg geforce , suggestion needed which one to buy

Are you from India, if yes, then shipping charges combined with duties will double the price more or less. (I just checked the link, its newegg, and they dont ship to India.)

If you are from the US, then its better to inves a little more and get a 4850, significantly faster then a 9800GT.

In India, you will get a 9600GT for 5.3k...

yeah i am from us

shipping doesnt bother

what is that 4850 need some more clearance

is it ATI RADEON series
 
Ok, Yes 4850, is an ATI (AMD) gpu, and its a better then a 9800GT at that price.

Some good deals you can look at:

Newegg.com - MSI R4850-512M OC Radeon HD 4850 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards

Newegg.com - XFX HD-485X-YDFC Radeon HD 4850 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards

Both of them are 139USD, with rebates, they turn out to be cheaper.

Alternatively a little lower down the order:

Newegg.com - SAPPHIRE 100265HDMI Radeon HD 4830 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards

Thats for 80 odd USD.

On the Nvidia front:

Newegg.com - EVGA 512-P3-1150-TR GeForce GTS 250 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards

Which is 130 USD, actually wasnt aware the GTS250 fell in prices, GTS 250 hence makes a better choice as compared to a 4850.. (marginal difference, but its cheaper too, hence a no brainer.)

thats fine

MSI R4850 is cool

does the psu needs to be changed for this as
it has some cooling pipes in it

what is the recommended power supply for this
 
Well whats your current PSU, since you are from the US. You have ample of choices for a PSU there. My pick at a sub 80USD range would be the BFG one:

Newegg.com - BFG Tech LS SERIES LS-550 550W Continuous @ 40°C ATX12V 2.3 / EPS12V 2.8 SLI Certified CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Power Supply - Power Supplies

For a detail review refer:

AnandTech: 500W to 550W: 12 Power Supplies Compared

The MSI one with a heat pipe design, are very efficient coolers. I have a similar cooling design on my current MSI 7900GTO...
