No problem Kevi. The GTX 560Ti is faster than the 7770 although the 7770 runs on a newer architecture and will support the early DX 12 Features which the 560Ti will not. From a pure performance standpoint, the 560Ti is similar to a 7790 which is not far too far from the 7770. Looking at the games you will want to play however, both these cards don't meet the minimum requirements for Witcher 3 and AC Unity with the latter having a lot of performance issues even on higher-end cards. You will still be able to achieve playable frames maybe with Low-Med with some High settings. My sister runs my old PC with an Intel Q8200 overclocked to 3GHz and a Palit GTX 560 (non-Ti) and she is currently playing Dragon Age Inquisition on med-high and the...

What games do you play? The 560 ti may be able to hold out on most titles but it's pretty old architecture (Fermi, 40nm). Newer games might not be optimized anymore for that card and you will eventually need to buy a new one as it might fail anytime. Here in the Philippines there's a shop selling a 7850 1GB for around 4000PHP or 5500 INR. That is brand new and supports newer technologies. If you can find something similar in India, I'd highly recommend it than that 560Ti

The GTX 560Ti is on par with the performance of the GTX 750 (see here: GTX 560Ti vs GTX 750) with a +/- 10% difference in games except Total War: Rome 2 where the GTX 750 pulls out ahead. The GT 730 is waaaay slower than both cards. It is similar to the GT 640 and you can check out the site above for a comparison of the GT 640 with either the GTX 560Ti or GTX 750 since the GT 730 isn't available for comparison. I would highly advice against the GT 730 if you are planning on gaming. The R7 250 with DDR5 will perform better at around the same price.

Hmm. .i see. .hey,i found a used hd 7770 1gb ddr5 for around INR 5000. . Would be a better deal than GTX 560 TI . .now the only option for me is to choose between this two card. . I really wanted to buy a GTX Card it was my dream. .And remember i would only play games at 1366x768 resolution cause my monitor doesnt support higher res than that. . And once again thank u bukojoe

I don't have experience with AC Unity but AC4 and AC Rogue runs fine with med-high settings on her PC.

Don't forget to vote for the best answer when your question has been solved. Thanks.

Surely u r going to be awarded the best answer. .hehe. .but i still have a confusion as to which to choose. .i dont think direct x 12 is going to be a big issue for some few years. .and i dont mind playing in low-med setting,but i want it to be able to handle my native resolution. . And as us sister can those games in good setting,i think the (TI) would be even more better. .Bdw,which one do u recomend,a GTX 560TI OR HD 7770?

Since both are sold used, I would recommend the 560Ti. It has a lower price and better performance than the 7770. And yes, since my sister can play those games at good settings and frame rates, the 560Ti would be even better.
