Hi,
I am pondering on upgrading my current system's GPU and PSU, I currently have
CPU:
Core i3 2120 3.3 Ghz

Motherboard:
Asus B75M-A (Micro ATX) a

GPU:
EVGA GT 440

PSU:
460 watt unbranded PSU.

My plan is to upgrade to ASUS R9 270 with Corsair VS 550 psu.

I just want to make sure that these are compatible with my motherboard and the PSU meets all the power requirements.
Also I am not sure if the GPU will 'fit in' to the board as it is micro ATX form factor.. GT440 is a small card and had no issues with space.

Thanks in Advance

The components are compatible, and the minimum recommended by AMD on a R9 270 is 500W, tho I would go with a bit more, specially if you're planning on OCing, proly 600W.

Also, I wouldn't suggest Corsair PSUs, I've seen a lot of bad reviews and tons of post discouraging them.

Thanks for your reply, I dont have a lot of options available because of where I live.
The other options to consider are:

Thermaltake SMART SE 630W Semi-Modular (SPS-630M)
Cooler Master GX2 550 WATT
