Like I said that particular 270x model, I can get that for 164 euros (cheaper than the GTX 950) from a diffrent (Dutch) webshop.

Also seeing the Powersupply tag under your avatar, I guess it means you're good with PSUs? 😛
I have a question, would a 500 Watt Cooler master suffice for;
A FX 6300 (Dutch shop: https://www.alternate.nl/html/product/information/pageBuilder.html?kind=pcBuilder&componentType=required&articleId=1038200&className=cpu&activeClassName=cpu)
My motherboard Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3P (https://www.alternate.nl/html/product/information/pageBuilder.html?kind=pcBuilder&componentType=required&articleId=1104044&className=mainboard&activeClassName=mainboard)
And the GTX 950 or the R9 370x

PSU in question: https://www.alternate.nl/html/product/information/pageBuilder.html?kind=pcBuilder&componentType=required&articleId=1136519&className=powerSupply&activeClassName=powerSupply
 


For a good GPU & overclocking CPU i can't recommend you any low Quality PSU.
Add 15 euro more & get this https://www.alternate.nl/Seasonic/S12II-520-EVO-Voeding-/html/product/143539?tk=7&lk=9303
This the lowest price of Tier 2 PSU [Good Quality]

GPU performance: R9 370X > GTX 950 > R9 270X
So get the R9 370X if both [GTX 950 & 390X] prices are same.
If you can't any more money then get the R9 270X.

Try to buy them [PSU+GPU] from Local Computer Shop/Market instead of Online shopping. Hope that way you can save some bucks [5-10 euro]
 


Alright thanks for the help. Though I don't really have a computer shop near me, so that's not really an option. But anyways thanks for the help, I'll probably go with that PSU and probably with the GTX 950, unless I can find a deal on the 370x.
