Best video card currently for 1280x1024 resolution?

HD6850 or HD7770.

What do you mean by 'Building a CPU'? You mean Building a PC right? Building a CPU means building a processor  .

You from India right? What is your budget in rupees and which store are you going to get from.

yes refillable i think he is from india because his name is kunal kishore which means yes he is from india. 

well which parts do you need to be upgrade?whole system?

6850 for raw performance

7770 for power consumption and newer tech

Yes I know  

There is like a 2% difference in performance, and a 40% difference in power consumption. Clearly the HD7770 is the better option in the US, since it's $10 cheaper ($129 vs $139).

Only reason I recommended both is that the newer card is likely to be more expensive in India.

its not 40% but closer to 20-25%...

a difference of roughly 50 watts but the 7770 is more efficient. my previous post does hold true that 6850 is faster but it shouldnt be more than 5%...
