With risk to start a fanboy war,I would really appreciate if someone actually could help me to choose between these 2 cards and actually give me reasons.The GTX 750 IS NON "Ti" edition it is STORMX.Both cards are 2GB and the exact same price in my country.
I am going to combine it with the FX 6300 CPU and Asus M5A78L-M/USB3 MOBO.

To be honest, the r7 is actually better, but in this pricepoint with such low end cards, it doesnt really matter, you may lose 1 fps, maybe 5 at worst case if you go with the 750, who cares
Buy the one that you feel better and safer, its up to you to decide anyway

And just to know, some things are magnifyed both from amd and nvidia fanboys for the opponent cards, drivers are more important than the card itself, really?!?
And how many guys got a blackscreen,and how often?
And have you ever heard that amd cpus consume more power,actually between 125watt(i5-some i7) and 220 watt(fx 9xxx) you pay the enormous amount of 25-30$ more per year, if the pc is under full load about 4 hours a day(imposible?)?
Same goes for intel and nvidia, dont...

Thanks for the fast reply n1kosbond,but I have also heard that r7 has problematic drivers etc..That's why is hard to choose for me It looks better but it looks problematic because of mantle and amd gpu's are hotter etc..

The r7 is more powerful, and the gtx has better drivers.
And I have to agree the r7 series is a joke to gaming(except r7 270x), but so are the gtx 750 and 750 ti(dont worry, im a low budget builder too)
The drivers may affect the framerate a bit, which means that if amd had as good drivers as nvidia they would get a little more fps, but still it will give you more than the 750, because it is more powerful

Yeah but I heard about the r7 black screen and that's the only thing that stops me from buying r7 / I don't think that my budget matters since I got everything else set up,but if i am going to buy a different kind of gpu than these too it has to be the same price as them

If you can fit in your budget an R7 265 however, the whole game would change
It is newer than the rest r7 series and was made an attemp from amd to counter the nvidia's cards that were then on market,so its actually better.
Its a lot more powerful and has 256bit-interface, the best performance in this price point

Same goes for intel and nvidia, dont think that amd is better because of this examples, just escape the fanboysm and make fair comparisons

Okay so what i am asking is this - is there any NOTICABLE different in the fps?I mean if the fps on far cry 3 for example is 60 on the gtx750 and 70 on the 260x I would go for the gtx750.
EDIT:I'll go with the gtx750
