Unless you just have to have an Nvidia product for some reason (Brand specific features maybe?) , there isn't really a reason to get a 960 right now.
The 280x can be found for similar prices ($220, and $199 after MIR for example.) and well outmatches the card. The 960 is made to Compete with the 28X series (280, 280x, 285), but doesn't look to be doing it's job very well.
tl;dr For the price you pay for a 960, you can get a 280x, which will outperform it.

Ok i'm guessing the PSU is either a RM or CX series so right now you dont have to upgrade it but I do suggest it in the future. What is your currency?
