The below is the minimum recommended upgrade and even that will cost ~4.8k-5k
ATI Raedon HD4670 512MB or 1GB DDR3 HD4670 -> ~3.3k-3.4k
FSP SAGAII 350w ~ 1.5k

What is the size of your monitor? The HD4670 is an entry level gaming card and is decent enough for 1366*768 gaming.
 
Am talking about this http://www.deltapage.com/products.php?product=XfX-ATi-Radeon-HD-4670-%28PCI%252dE-{47}-DDR3-{47}-1Gb%29

And thats 1 GB version

Have a look at this:-

 
HD 5670 will cost you Rs 4,400/-

Both 4670 and 5670 perform pretty much the same.

Go for Corsair CX400---Rs2400

Use the above PSU but don't overclock your PC.Slight OCing is alright though.

And don't forget to use Indian power cords for the PSU if it's not included in the corsair.
 
HD 4670 512 MB is not Directx 11 Compliant...will that make a much difference to me to play games with some decent playable graphics and frame rate?.... also with respect to thegames like crysis 2...will it be playable???

Incorrect. The 5670 has double the mem bandwidth of the 4670 for starters.

Here are some comparison benchies : AnandTech - AMD's Radeon HD 5670: Sub-$100 DirectX 11 Starts Today

"It’s also a great deal faster than the 4670, beating it by nearly 40%"
I guess I underestimated the power of 5670.

alive Hunter you can go for 5670 512 it's actually double the performance of 4670 512.But I don't know weather it's true for 4670 1GB ver.
 
I will tell you one thing " DONT THINK OF BUYING PREVIOUS GENERATION CARDS (those launched before 2 years) EVEN IF THEY ARE PRICED LOW " get the 5670 if low on budget... Dx11 is definite eyecandy, but wont be supported by 4670 (I know it was a good card competing 9600gt at that time), Take a 5670 or spend some more and get 6670..... sorry for giving suggestions of somewhat higher price range, but I personally think spending few bucks more would lead to peace of mind while playing games.

for DX 11 5830/5850 or nVidia GTX 460 768mb/GTX 460 1 GB is a minimum requirement. Cause unless ur getting good frames, its of no use.
 
In seems so that HD5670 is not within my budget... so .. i guess i should go for HD4670....
BUT

1GB won't make any difference in performance on 128 bit bus. I'd say 1GB is a waste on 128bit.. :)
