I'm looking to upgrade my GPU for gaming as my current one, Radeon 5570, Is quite outdated. My current parts are as listed;

CPU - AMD Phenom 2 X6 1090t @ 3.2 GHZ (I can OC it to about 3.6GHZ and remain stable)
MB - Foxconn 2a92 (Contains a PCIE 2.0 x 16 if i'm correct)
Memory - 8GB Dual Channel DDR3

My current PSU is a 460 watt Delta DPS-460DB-3 A, Which I presume is not enough to run the cards I have been looking into. I would like a recommendation for a PSU that will support the parts I currently have as well as support the GPU, If possible.

I've been looking at more high end cards, but not too high end, such as the GTX 760 and the R9 270x, But i'm not 100% certain what would run best given my processor.

I suggest you spend your money buying something like an Nvidia GTX660 or the Radeon HD7870. As for the PSU, I suggest going for something like a 550W-600W PSU. Always buy a branded PSU as it is one of the most important components of your build. Hope this helped! :D
