It`s nice to see this post today. I have seen 970`s and 980`s recently. Haha
So good day to you OP. :)  smile first.

For your Graphics card, you can buy the R9 270`s or R9 280`s which ever you can afford. This cards will be a good pair for your CPU.

500watts doesn't mean anything. it's the make and the model and the manufacturer that matters.

Haha of course, 500W means that you can run R9 270X.
Remove the R9 280X in your option for it will be on the edge of your PSU`s capacity.

Consider this options:

R9 270 or 270X
GTX 750ti
R7 260X or R7 260

thanks. i looked at the specs and prices and
-love R7 260/ R7 260X / R7 265 / and the older HD7750 => all under $150 with good stats
-6970 is >300 $ i can't afford

-may i ask your opinion what to choose from - R7 260/ R7 260X / R7 265 / and the older HD7750

-why i love R7 265 : lowest priced 256 bits card
-why i love old HD7750: low power use 75 watts for gddr5 @ 110$

-u r opinion pls
-i esp. want to know advantages of 256 bits over 128 bits

thanks
:)

No there is nothing wrong with that card, but I don't know much about it. Have you looked at the GTX 750ti? If you can stretch your budget for this card, I would highly recommend this.

ok
-i've looked at the stats
-the only advantage of GTX 750ti is power consumption 60 W compared to same price counterpart R7 265 (stated 150W)
-for others stats R7 265 is superior

thanks anyway
