Is R9 270X a good recent VGA?
Can this VGA handle games like battlefield 4, far cry 3, blacklist, cod, bioshock infinite, total wars 2, etc in Ultra sets?

Worth to buy?
 
Solution
I think mix of High/Ultra is more appropriate. BF4 multi-player will cause the frames to fluctuate quite a bit. While the averages are in the 30s and 40s, you should expect a to minimums below that. Crysis is even more GPU heavy.

The rest of the games will be fine. But you also haven't listed your CPU. That will also define the performance you'll get. What is it?
AMD Radeon R9 270X is a little faster than the older HD 7870 or Nvidia GTX 660.
You can expect at least 40 FPS in Battlefield 4 at 1920x1080 ultra settings:

This is providing your CPU can also manage 40 FPS.

In Far Cry 3 at 1920x1080 ultra quality, you should get at least 30 FPS:

Other games you have mentioned have lower requirements.

FSP Hexa 500W 80+
 
Combined +12V rating of 408W.
Your components can load this to about 75%, which is under the 80% maximum I would recommend.
Quality is OK based on this review of the 400W model:

The only thing I would note is that this is a power supply designed for input voltages of 200-240V.
If you live in a country with 110V mains power, this is supply is not good to you.
If you have 240V mains power, it should be fine.
