Hello everyone,

I am thinking about upgrading my GPU since the one I have is really bad - gaming and displaying the right resolution. The last GPU I had was Sapphire HD5770, it was an awesome graphic card and my PSU was enough for it, but got broken somehow and now I am stick with the Nvidia Geforce 8400 GS.

I can't decide between R7 265 and R9 270. I did watched game performances of these 2 cards, but still can't decide which one will be enough to play newer games (in like 2 or more years). Playing games with normal settings will be enough for me. :)

With one of these 2 graphic cards, will my PSU of 570W be enough?

System:
Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-M52L-S3P
HDD - Toshiba 500 GB
CPU - AMD Athlon x3 435, 2.90 GHz
PSU - Trust 570W
RAM - 3 GB

Thank you for your time reading this post :)

P.S.
