I can get a brand new gtx 580 for about the same price as a r7 260x / gtx 650ti but I was wondering if my psu would be able to handle it? or should I just play it safe and get a r7 260x? unfortunately I'm in Norway and I don't have other options for gfx cards in that price range.

I know It's not ideal but I was thinking because I have a low power cpu it might be ok?

Pc specs-

g3258 @ 4.2ghz (1.2v)
g85m-d3h
6gb ddr3 vengeance
500w ocz modxstream pro (brand new)
1x 7200rpm hard drive, 1x dvd drive
6x 120mm fans (includes cpu fan)

Thanks!
 
Someone will go into more detail then me but it will work.
