[panwala95]

i wanted to buy a new graphic card in new delhi under rs 13000.
i am getting a zotac gtx 560 ti @ rs 12500 . i like the radeon card but dont no the cost.
also which performs better?would a corsair cx 600 psu suffice for card.
plz see my config under my user id and advice.
any input is appreciated
Cheers!

They both perform about the same, so I'd choose the cheapest.

Both will be fine on a CX600.

but i plan to upgrade to more powerful graphic card in 2years like gtx 780 or something . would it run too on the cx600

No way, the 6950 is way more powerful than a 560ti. I actually like nVidia better, but the 6950 is still better than a 560 ti

Then you might want to buy one of the 7000s so you could just buy a second one in a year or 2. Depend on your mobo and PSU.

otherwise get the cheapest one and personaly I,d favor the 6950 if both are at the same price but you can't go wrong with either one if your on a budget.

as mentioned.. they are pretty much equal in performance, it actually depends on what res ur gonna play, the 560ti gives better FPS at lower res @ 1440x900 .. more or less same FPS @ 1600x1024 and the HD 6950 is faster @ 1920x1080
