I am going to get an upgrade for my old PC and I want to choose between these 2 graphics cards :
Sapphire R7 260X 1GB OC Version (http://www.sapphiretech.com/presentation/product/product_index.aspx?pid=2040&lid=1)
and
ASUS GTX 750 non-TI 1GB
My PC (for now) : Core 2 Duo E4400 (will upgrade)
2GB RAM DDR 2 (will upgrade)
460W PSU (will upgrade too)
GeForce 9500GT 1GB ASUS (It still works fine, but I need something for gaming)

My monitor's resolution is 1280x1024. I want to play new games (such as : Watch Dogs, GTA V, Assassin's Creed Unity and older Assassin's Creed, Far Cry 4 and Far Cry 3, GRID, GTA IV, Max Payne 3, Splinter Cell : Blacklist and other new games). I plan upgrading to an Athlon II X4 750K, if it helps.
Thanks!

Do you think that this configuration will be able to play the newest games / "next-gen" games at 1280x1024 with medium to high details? (the games I mentioned in my first post)
Athlon II X4 750k
4GB RAM
Sapphire R7 260X 1GB
450W PSU nJoy 450WGX (I'm not sure about this one)
This is the PC I am going to build (it isn't very expensive and I find it really good.)

I think I will search for a Seasonic PSU, as I can't find any Corsair / XFX quality PSU (from the ones you recommended me.). Thannks for your help. But I have one more question.
Would that PC be able to play "next-gen" games (1280x1024) at medium to high details? Thanks!
