Upgrading from an APU

Right now, I have an AMD A6-6400k. The graphics, are annoyingly bad. I built my PC last year and I'm planning to buy a dedicated graphics card. I thought of buying either GTX 750ti or R9 270. My budget is USD 200. I could buy a GTX 960 IF it is under that 200 mark. Meanwhile, between GTX 750ti and R9 270, which one should I buy?

 

Edit:

I just realized the R7 370 is already out... Any significant difference to the 270?

Also, the GTX 950 is said to be released in a few weeks. Is it worth the wait?

Go with a 270x as that's the most AMD CPU's can fully use properly.

FTFY
