My computer specs:

Motherboard: MSI FM2-A75MA-E35
APU: AMD A10-5800k
(I was thinking about disabling the integrated graphics I heard cross-firing with my APU wouldn't be as good.)

Will the AMD R9 270 (not the X version) work with my motherboard?

Is there a better card i can get around 200$?

Probably a little bit but really not much. You are better off with a 280 than a 270(x). Especially for the future.
Only CPU intensive games suffer slightly.
