Was thinking about getting a Sapphire HD 7850 1GD5.
But then i came across this Galaxy GTX 660 2GD5 at almost same price in clearance sales near my place.
Which is better?

Surely buy a GTX 660 . Hd 7850 is it's tough competetor bot not as good as gtx 660. So without a doubt buy a gtx 660 or hd 7870 (if you have no problem with the budet).
Altough there's not really much performance difference between gtx 660 and hd 7850 2 gb (just a bit noticable difference). But as you have mentioned it has only 1 gb vram so avoid it and go for gtx 660.
 
GTX 660 is definitely better than 7850
But i doubt the Galaxy. They sometimes make underclocked cards with low power requirement. I remember a 9800GT that didn't require a PCIe connector
Might require the model no. and some specs to be sure.
The Galaxy GeForce GTX660 GC 2GB is good enough

If you are unsure on the galaxy, just get any other brand. In any case the 660 will always beat the 7850.
