For 40 bucks more you could get this one:

A better card than the R7 240. DO you plan on upgrading your PC soon?

Well, If I were you I'd first upgrade my PC to a better one and would last awhile, like an i5, then think about the GPU, but it's your call. Anyways, good luck!

The R7 240 spec wise is worse than the RX 460, please read the comparison linked below:

real gaming cards at AMD starts at xxx60, a bit like at nvidia where it is gtX x60 or xx60
below that it is just a waste of money

if you plan to do gaming on PC, you should be aware that it'll cost you more than the price of a console, consoles started at 400$ (well now at 300$), for a PC you should at least plan on 6-800$

that usually means, 200$ gpu + 100$ MB + 150$ CPU + RAM, case, HDD, PSU, ...
if you can't get that kind of money you should continue playing on consoles because it'll be cheaper and you'll have a better experience than on a low end PC due to the optimization developpers do for consoles and do not for PC

You should get a Radeon R7 250.
