I have been looking around for some time for some new graphics cards, and some have caught my eye, mainly the GeForce 750 Ti and the Amd Radeon 270. I have managed to find a decent deal for the 270 ($165 on amazon), but I have been confused by the sheer number of types of the 750 that I am tempted to forgo the card just because of that. If you could check out the links here, that would be really helpful.

Sapphire Radeon R9 270

Questions:
1. Should I go for the 270 or the 750? I have found this comparison (http://goo.gl/xPJTDF), and is that all the areas to compare the two to? Is it inaccurate, as the cards values (e.g. clock speeds) change from one manufacturer to another?

2. If I were to choose the 750, which version should I buy? (suggestions welcome, but I want to buy from amazon for the quick prime shipping. I need it rather quickly.) Is the Superclocked version worth the extra 30 (plus the copper core, not exactly sure what that is,)
and do the dual fans increase the card's performance, or is the single fan enough?

3. Am I getting a good deal on the 270? I am rather unfamiliar with the pricing changes on GPUs, and i'm relying on you guys to help me out with this.

Sorry for writing so much, and thanks in advance for your help.
Edit: I have neglected to mention that my motherboard model is Intel DH67Cl, which is supposed to be compatible with these cards. My power supply doesn't have the extra power cable (PCI?), but since it's a 300w power supply, I plan getting a new one anyway.

R9 270 is faster than a GTX 750Ti. It is just the GTX 750Ti being overpriced at the high end models .
gpuboss shouldn't be the only thing you look at when comparing graphics cars. Look at gpu reviewers that has tested the card with others in games.
yes it is inaccurate to compare clock speed with different gpu. You can only compare clock speed if it is the same gpu line up e.g comparing EVGA 750Ti with other brand 750Ti.

What power supply do you have ? Brand and model?

THe EVGA SC is just factory overclocked out of the box. The normal version of he EVGA 750Ti can be overclocked to the same performance. Single fan is enough for a 750Ti.

I rather guessed that much from the comparison, but would you say that this deal (165$) is a good one? I have seen reviews, but have found few comparisons between those two specific cards, and that is why I posted this question to the community here.

I have a crapbox power supply (Mercury KTP H200, 300w) which used to run my NVIDIA ZOTAC 430. Since it's inadequate for either models, I plan on getting on a new one.

Any suggestions about which power supply should I get for either cards? And what is the price range for ps like these, as i'm probably getting them in my 3rd world country (add 30-40% to the price). Any budget power supplies that I should look out for?
