Frequently Asked Questions

Is ₹25,000 enough for a decent gaming GPU in 2026?

Yes — at this price you can expect smooth 1080p gaming at medium-to-high settings in most esports and older AAA titles. It remains the most price-sensitive tier, so checking the live Value Score ranking matters more here than at any other budget.

Should I buy a new card or consider a used one at this budget?

New is safer for warranty, especially with limited local service coverage for older imported cards. A well-priced used card one tier up can sometimes beat a new card here on raw performance — compare Value Score, not just the listed price.

How often does this ranking update?

The picks above reflect current in-stock prices across major online retailers, refreshed regularly — since GPU pricing in India can swing with import costs and festive-season sales, the ranking can shift from week to week.
