The prices I posted are from Supertron at Secunderabad.

The local Supertron guy who deals with both Zotac & Sapphire is Sumit.

His contact no is 093 95 141110.
Call him and get your local guys number.

@bssunilreddy thanks for the number ,I called this Sunil 3 times but yet he dint send me any number for Mumbai. Anyways will go to local market and find out who will take card payment.
 
The card is recommended over many tech forums. Good luck for it.
PS post a short review about the performance of the card.

For 1080p Gaming & Future Proofing:

Buy the Sapphire RX470 8GB Nitro+ OC @ 20.5k from SAPPHIRE GRAPHICS CARD RADEON RX 470 8GB DDR5 NITRO+ OC

First off, I will say that my decision was based on three things:
1) Future Proofing
2) Price to Performance
3) 1080p Gaming

If you compare the reference specs of the two cards, you see that the RX 470 has only ~89% of the specs of the RX 480.

However, thanks to Sapphire's customizing, that percentage gets bumped up to ~93% with the Nitro+ models. That's because Sapphire has increased the base clock and the memory speed, and thus the memory bandwidth --and they've done a better job with the 470 percentage wise, than with the 480. And that 4% bump is a game changer when you look at the cost.

Did you just copy the post from here :p

The specs are not equally weighted. The 300 more stream processors on the 480 will make a bigger difference than the clockspeeds and the memory speed.

If you use debit card the charge should be zero. 2k savings for no warranty is not worth it.
