I'm looking to upgrade my graphics card. I already know my power supply is terrible and also needs to be upgraded.

The graphics card i will be getting is this:
EVGA GeForce GTX 960 Superclocked 2GB GDDR5 PCI-e Video Card
http://www.microcenter.com/product/44411...

It's part of a deal in which you get Witcher 3 free. What power supply should i get so i can handle that GPU? I read that 500w is needed so i found a 500w for 60 dollars. Is this good? http://www.microcenter.com/product/40783...

Note: I might not be using micro center. I may end up getting everything from Amazon or Newegg depending on what is cheapest. Also my CPU is Intel Core i5-3570k 3.40 GHz and i have 8GB ram if that info is needed.

You can get an XFX 550w on Newegg right now for $26.99 after a $10 promo code and $25 mail in rebate. It's a very good PSU (probably the most recommended on these forums).

Awesome just checked it out. That PSU will definitively work with the graphics card i am getting right? How long do you think before i would need to upgrade my PSU again if i get it?

Yes, that PSU will work just fine with a GTX 960 with plenty of room to spare. You will not have to upgrade your PSU for years to come unless you want to add a second card and do SLI. Expect it to last at least until the 5 year warranty is up.
