270X or 280X should fit well.

Wait for the R7 265 to come out. That thing is gonna be a very nice value for how much it is going to be (about $150).

Agreed, if TS can wait, the R7 265 would be the fastest R7 series card, faster than the GTX750 Ti but less power efficient......but when it comes to gaming, we want more POWAH, and power efficient can take a leap! :D  But seriously, it's a very nice and gaming capable card, but if you have a relatively weak PSU, then the GTX750 Ti would be a good alternative.
