Hi Zac, it's Sanctorum here. What 500W PSU have you purchased? As the quality could determine which GPU's are, and are not suitable.

Thanks,

It's not a very good quality unit, you could have got something better. However, it will work. I'd suggest picking up an R9 380. You'll need to check how much space you have for a GPU in your case, and make sure whichever 380 you get will fit. It would be worth buying a new case, if possible.

Okay, so according to your PM, you haven't actually bought a new PSU yet? Neither the Corsair or EVGA PSU would be a good choice. What is your budget for all of your upgrades, and what are you looking to upgrade?
