if you want to play games then non of the above mentioned card will be good for you. it is highly recommended for you to spend atleast 8k and purchase 6670 also what are your pc specs ?

Your PC is good just you need a decent graphic card for gaming by the way the cards you have mentioned would be waste of money, Also please mention your wattage and output of psu will allow us to suggest you better

Right now I am using FSP 300W psu but going to buy a Corsair 430W this week IN SHA ALLAH.
Your budget is 7k the best you can get is the 4870HD or at least HD 5750/6750 perhaps their is chance you could also get a 5770 (512mb version) which performs nearly equal to 4870 and consumes less power...
Consider buying the graphic card after changing the psu now it can only support mainstream cards

buy a used 5770/6770 if you have to but don't go for old 4 series. also get the psu first. your current psu is useless with anything that requires an external power connector.

Is Corsair 430W fine? I raised my budget to 8.5K at max for GPU:)

I have to replace my PSU anyway, current power supply has been repaired twice and needs to be replaced :)

yes corsair 430w is more than enough. try looking for a used 550ti or may b even a 6790. u might find one in this price if you are a bit lucky. their prices are dropping these days with the arrival of new series.

if you can raise your budget to 8.5k then raise it a little bit more and purchase 6750 because spending more on the gpu is totally worth it

In 8k u ll easly get a 6770 and by increasing a little bit u ll get0 6790 which is better option IMO.

you are already spending 8.5k i would suggest wait for a month or so collect a bit more money and go for a 7750 in 10.9k it is the ultimate best you can get in a short budget.

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.
