Hi guys, I was looking for an upgrade from the integrated graphics in the A8-7600 and I was wondering what would be a good fit without the CPU bottlenecking the graphics card but still having good performance. Thanks.

I can't speak to the XT series, but Raidmax in general is a 4th tier PSU at best: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html#xtor=EPR-8886
"Not to be used in stressful situations" It's +12V specs put it in the GTX 960, R9-270X class as the max card I would feel safe using with it.

While you could use a 750ti, I wouldn't personally trust any of my parts with such a PSU - Raidmax is one of the notorious bottom-of-the-barrel junk PSU brands we try to steer builders away from.

I see. I finished my build a few months ago and the power supply has been working fine. Nothing out of the ordinary. Will it damage any of my parts in the future, particularly a new graphics card or something else important?

It's possible. Sometimes you luck out, especially on light loads. But while you can run it -- the 750ti sips power -- I would be personally very uncomfortable with it long-term.
