Need help selecting a GPU for my first build. (Game heavy)

Here is a list of the parts I have bought so far...was wondering what I could get in here for around 200$ for the best performance. I was looking at a http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202125&cm_re=tri_x_r9_280x-_-14-202-125-_-Product

not sure if i can run it on a Corsair cx600m psu but I've read some say it can run it fine. Also pc part picker didnt have any conclicts when i selected that gpu with the psu.
