No way to tell. The 9xxx cards are not out yet.
But... new cards are being built to limit the power requirements.
I would expect any single gpu card to be able to run on such a psu.
Today, a 7970 or titan can run on 600w.
As to quality, here is one list, sorted by quality tiers:

The 9XXX Volcanic Islands series of AMD GPUs will be on the 20nm architecture. Since the 9970 may use less power to run games, it's ideal to buy a 650W PSU. Make sure it's a brand that is trustable e.g. Seasonic, Sirtec / High Power, XFX, Antec, Corsair etc. Some brands are recognisable but make terrible PSUs e.g. Aerocool, Akasa, Cooler Master (GX, GX lite, B series, elite). Choose wisely for your soon-to-be-new GPU.

The Rosewill Capstone series PSUs are made by Superflower, a company with high quality standards. That PSU will do fine with your future setup.

If you can cheap in, I would personally go for the SeaSonic X-650W.
There's a promo code on newegg now: EMCXMVN256
that's 15% off which cuts the price to 118$.
Their X series is one of the best out there!
