Which Graphics Card Should I Get?

[kingdomtim]

I can't decide which graphics card to get, and I don't have that much money left to spend. 
These are all my parts:

Ram- G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) 
Motherboard- MSI 970 Gaming AM3+ AMD 970 6 x SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD 
CPU- AMD FX-6300 Vishera 6-Core 3.5GHz (4.1GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ 95W 
OS- Windows 10 Home
Heat Sync- Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 
Power Supply- CORSAIR CX series CX750M 750W ATX12V v2.3 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Modular Active PFC
Case- RAIDMAX Viper GX ATX-512WBR Black/Red Steel / Plastic ATX Mid Tower
Hard Drive- Seagate Barracuda ST1000DM003 1TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" 

P.S. I am looking to spend no more than $150-$175. Which graphics card should I get for this amount and will get me my best performance? If you can include Rough FPS estimates from demanding games, that would also be appreciated. 

Thank You

For that price I'd look for a used 280x. Might be able to find a new one on eBay. 

As for FPS, I have the same card and Witcher 3 for example, one of the most demanding games today, runs maxed out (with Hairworks off) at 1080p for an average 45-50fps.

What are you using the computer for.

A 285 or 280X would work.

[kingdomtim]

Guys the 280x sounds good but I am not trying to exceed my budget any further than $175. The Gtx 950 sounds like a good choice, but I've also heard from some other people that the R9 270 and R9 270x would be good choices for my computer. What do you think?

Do yourself a favor, spend 15 dollars more, and get a 280.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Asus-R9-280X-DC2T-3GD5-/121754707250?hash=item1c59256532#viTabs_0 Here's one for example in your budget. There's several more if you look around.

The 270x is the best out of those if you must.

[kingdomtim]

Is the 280 THAT much better than the 270x where I should spend the extra $15-$20 on it?

All those cards outperform the 950. 

[kingdomtim]

All those cards outperform the 950. 

Oh Alright. By the way, do you think I can run Skyrim on 60 Fps using a 270 or 270x?

 

Im on a really strict budget so I might have to end up getting those, but your advice was still helpful and useful.

You'll have no problem running Skyrim on ultra with those cards.

you could get the sapphire 270 for 160 with a 20$ rebate on amazon so it 140$, the 270 is the same as the 270x but with a lower clock speed

$150 bones.....750ti is about as good as it gets.

No AMD junk.

All the AMD cards outperform the 750Ti by leaps and bounds.

Fanboy detected. Don't comment if you have nothing of value to add.

You'll be able to mod Skyrim pretty nicely with the 280x. 

[FinestRyeBread]

You can get a used 280x or 285 for around $170 usd
