For the newer cards, this PSU isn't gonna cut it for two reasons. One it doesn't have enough wattage nor enough amps on the 12V rail to handle the card that i reccomended. Also it doesn't have the right PCI-E power connector.

You could split your $300 budget and get a new PSU and new graphics card. I would reccomend:

PSU:Antec TRUEPOWERII TPII-550 550W

Or for extreme power (Found out this the US equivelent of my PSU)
SILVERSTONE ZEUS SST-ST65ZF 650W

And graphics card:
XFX GeForce 7600 GT XXX (590MHz) 256MB

That would be my choices
