1st of All, your PSU picture is totally unreadable, but it looks a Desi PSU
I would say to get a decent GPU and PSU also
Get EVGA GTS 450 with Cooler master 460 Watt PSU
in 15~20k, you can find more combination of PSU & GPU, you can wait for more suggestions from other members

 

[syed misbah]

get 5770 nd 460 watt psu

 

[Comrade General]

You have to change that power supply of yours. Would you like to buy the stuff used or new?

 

[Voodoo]

now the PSU rating is clear, so you cannot use this PSU with a decent GPU

 

[Pink PanthEr]

you need to upgrade your power supply and graphic card....and in the last your processor.so now i think you should buy a 460watt or a 500watt
power supply and an evga Gts450 or an xfx 5770.

I would like to have a reliable system of PSU and graphic card.
I don't know much abt reliability of used ones.
Could u help ??

for PSU, i would say to get a new one
For GPU, better to get a new as you have enough budget, otherwise get it from a reputable member, or get it locally after checking it thoroughly

i found a gpu-z screen shot of gts450 and i compared it with my xfx 5770 and found that 5770 is a lot lot better.

i wud segest u a new xigmatc 400w on 4k(4000rs) and a used hd5770 on 12k(12000rs) round about = 16k(16000rs) total
it ll play any latest game without a problem .

and overclock ur processor on that board its a good overclocker on stock HSF ...it ll touch 3.3GHZ on that board easily ... first learn overclockin from PG members ok

 

[sunny945]

just purchase a gts450 new and xigmatek 400watt in 3500rs and you are good to go with the games
it will extend your budget a little but iMO is best option for you

 

[Pink PanthEr]

A brand new xfx 5770 will cost you 13800Rs only...dont buy a used one ,its risky... or try to find a used Gtx460 in this price.

great sugestion by masood and sunny
bt i would say set a specific dead line.....look for a used 5770 in that time and at end just grab a gts450 (sparkle is much cheaper from iamextreme.net) and get xigmatec 400watt or 500watt if budget allows at end (xigmatec is also available only at iamextreme.net)......500watt will be ore future proof and costs just 1k more

used 577o under warranty can be found easily in aroung 11k.....but its definitely worth it

 

[u0sama]

a 5770 with a cm 460watts psu or xgimatec nrp- 402 watts supply will be good and its in ur budget!!!

Firstly Power Supply
Xigmatec 500W VC-503 = 4500 PKR (imextreme)
CM eXtreme Power Plus 500W = 4050 PKR (Czone)

which one should i go for ???

 

[Pink PanthEr]

check the amps on +12v rail on them and get the one which has more.

update: C.M has 30 amps total (combined +12v 1 and 2)... 360/12=30 amps

Xigmatec 500W VC-503 ratings are

+12V1: 15.0A/1.0A
+12V2: 16.0A/1.0A

(i think C.M is a better option considering its price)

Ok so i am going for cm power supply
now gpu
y the price of sparkle one is lower can anyone explain me ??

 

[Syavash]

^Its not lower. International prices for nearly all GTX460s (reference design) are same. However pakistani businessmen charge a large premium to rip-off people whereas iamextreme.net doesnt. Simple as that.
