Never heard of that brand, but your PSU has 40A on the combined 12V rails so you should be fine! That would probably power up to a R9 290 without issues. Happy gaming :) I would recommend you upgrade to 8GB of RAM you might see a small bottleneck with the R9 270 :) I think the i3 CPU is fine though.
