You could get an AMD 280 or an nVidia 760 for that money. I'd probably take the 280 if it was up to me.

An AMD 280 for sure. That budget should get you a half decent one as well.

R9 280X.

would this card run with the power supply i posed in the OP.
it has the right connections?

I don't think you'll get an R9 280X within your budget mate, not new anyway. The R9 280 on the otherhand should be bang on budget
That card your looking at is a good one and yes your power supply will be able to power that no bother, and it's got the tight connections as well

2nd hand 280x can be had for peanuts these days thanks to the mining craze. As long as its fairly new (post Jan) then chances are it would have been run undervolted and at low temps on x11 algo anyway.
