screen size - 17" CRT (may switch to 15"/17" TFT, so please mention for this one too)
budget - upto Rs. 5k (but that doesnt mean that i wont buy the cheap ones).

Get Palit Nvidia 9600GT card, it comes around 6k
but its worth it, it can play all the latest games at high settings.

For cheaper alternative,
you can get Nvidia 9500

THe only good ATI cards which are worth a buy are HD4850 and HD4870, which are way out of your budget.

If you want ATI, then you can look at HD3850

Can u plz tell which PSU u have ?

In case u have a PSU without a pci-e power connector, get the ATI4650. Its faster than the 9500GT in most games. But slower than 9600GT. As ur willing to spend 5k, both PSU and GFX card can not fit in that cost. A good PSU will cost u atleast 3.5k.


PS: The ATI4650 does not require a pci-e connector. The 9600GT does require one.

Have a check on Palit Radeon 4670 Super, this will set you back around 6K but worth every penny. Especially if you want to use the HDTV option at the later date. With this card you can use the LCD TV as a monitor too
