Ok so I just made a thread kind of like this but now I looked at some prices and cards and he is what i found.
Msi amd radeon r7850 twin frozr ($160)
Xfx r9 270 boost ($ 145)
Sapphire duel x r9 270 ( $160)
Msi amd r9 270 ($160)
Msi amd r9 270x hawk edition ( $150 but its used)
Sapphire toxic r9 270x ($160 but it says new with details (ebay) so im guessing they had it installed but not used)
Evga 750 ti ftw ($150)
I used ebay and newegg and about two of these we used on ebay. My cpu is fx 6300 and a power supply of 600watt. Thank you.

Ok so I guess that it is between the xfx and sapphire toxic. Price doesn't metter as long as it is under 160. The xfx is brand new and cheaper but its also weaker and the toxic is only a couple of dollars more and Is much more powerful.But it isnt brand new (the guy on ebay said that its been used for a couple of hours in his mining rig (idk what that is). Also the card is HUGE...it has three fans and idk if it would fit. My case is Enermax Coenus Gunmetal grey. My case seems big (well for me at least) but I have asus M5A97 LE R2.0 mobo and idk if its big or strong enough. I AM A NOOB and this is my first computer so sorry if I ask wierd or obsious questions.

R9 270 from XFX by far. The thing looks like a sexy beast and it has amazing cooling. Also the R9 270 is an underclocked Radeon 7870 so if you overclocked it it would easily out perform the 750ti and the 7850. Also it has a cheap price which is a huge benefit.

Either the Sapphire toxic r9 270x or the MSI R9 270x Hawk Edition.

XFX doesn't make as good coolers in terms of functionality usually. Sapphire is like the best, but MSI isn't bad either.

As for performance, all of the AMD cards already beat the Nvidia 750 ti, every single one in the list. The R9 270 is actually a faster AMD 7870, not an underclocked one. The RAM speed went up by almost 1Ghz, and power consumption was cut way down. The core clock is down only about 50Mhz usually if that.

As for why the R9 270x, its similar but it has faster core clocks and a much higher power draw, so you can overclock it more.
