eagle9er9er :
Okay thanks! Still open for suggestions.
EDIT: On another note, I have another Corsair 500x PSU stored away somewhere from my old computer that I bought off newegg. I can throw that in if I need a little extra juice. Unless you guys suggest otherwise.
ok then if you can use that PSU instead, 500w give enough headroom to allow for a better graphics card without the need of a new PSU...
Here some other suggestions :
GTX 760 by EVGA, 20$ off and you get a PC game (Daylight)

GTX 770 by MSI, it's the twinfrozr gaming OC , 30$ off and also comes with Daylight PC game :

This is getting over your budget but it is the lowest price for a GTX770
On the AMD side, the new r9 280 is within budget (it is a rebranded of a radeon HD7950 boost)
R9 280 again by MSI 20$ off no game included:

Also from XFX awesome deal on the r9 280 found here :

might also be interested in this one wich is the overclocked version of the previous card, 110$ off the original price including mail in rebate here:

the R9 280 card performs a little better then the 760 and comes with 3gb of VRAM, and one of these would be my personal pick, i would go with the XFX not overclocked and overclock myself using MSI afterburner wich is very easy to do...
