Hi HelloItsPersonalHD
The Radeon R7-260X requires a psu with 19A on the +12v rail and a 450W psu minimum
i would suggest you upgrade your PSU to about 500-550w for some headroom
and get a quality PSU with high grade capacitors from
seasonic/xfx ( also made by seasonic ) or any PSU from the corsair TX,HX or AX range of PSU's
