i have the following config :-

CPU - AMD FX 6300

RAM- KINGSTON HYPER BLU 4 GB @1600 MHZ

MOBO -M5A97 R2.0

CABINET - COOLER MASTER HAF 912

CPU COOLER - COOLER MASTER HYPER 212

PSU - BLUESTAR 650 WATTS

NOW I HAVE THE MOBO PCI @ 2.0

SO I AM CONFUSED BETWEEN CHOOSING THE GRAPHIC CARD THE WOULD BE BEST ON MY CONFIG

POWRCOLOR HD 6790 IN INDIA I AM GETTING IT @ 14500 Rs /230 $

AND

XFX HD 7870 IN INDIA AT @ 16500 /260 $

AS U ALL MAY KNOW 7870 IS PCI 3.0
AND I DONT HAVE THAT ON MY MOBO ALSO I LL BE PLAYING GAMES LIKE NFS RUN ,MAXPAYNE ,BF3 CRYSIS 3 ON SONY BRAVIA AT HIGHER RESOLUTIONS SO WHICH GRAPHIC ARD SHOULD I GO FOR ......



also could you suggest that i am choosing to get seasonic s12 620 watts psu would it be sufficient to drive my config with any of the two cards????

and what difference would be between ZOTAC NVIDIA 650TI 2DDR5(AMP) @ 10000k / @150 $

ATI 7870 2GB DDR 5 SAPPHIRE 16900 / $250
becoz ill be getting only one card for now ...due to limitations on the pci slots ...???


so i just want to invest once but on the good stuff which would be future proof ....?????


Plz suggest

Actually even a 430W PSU can run the system but this is not advised.
Seasonic is the company that makes power supplies for all the other brands, INCLUDING corsair.
Your best option would be to go for a Seasonic S12ii 520w or if you are really looking forward to upgrading in the future then go for 620W, 750w is absolutely not required for this system
