If you don't mind waiting for a $50 MIR there's a really good deal on this R9 390 8gb which will out perform both the GTX 670 & 960.

It's only $10 above your budget for the initial price.

Not sure, I only have access to US sites from my work computer. If you use a website like PCPartpicker then you could probably find a GPU within your budget that might be faster then the ones you've listed. I will say though if I had to choose between those two I would go with the 960 4gb.

Ok, I was able to access Australia pcpartpicker and I have to say WOW, parts are so much more expensive then in the US. Yea there's not much for a choice for GPUs, I would just go for the GTX 960 4gb and overclock it a bit to get the most out of it although there are plenty of factory overclocked ones as well which should give you decent performance.

Yes the GTX 960 is a bit faster but where it will exceed is the extra 2gb of vram on certain games/resolutions.
