You can't order online from places like Amazon or Newegg? Well BestBuy has 750Ti for $199 and XFX R9 270X for $199. Maybe you can ask one of your relatives or friends to order you the same parts from Newegg.com or Amazon.com? I mean 750Ti can often be found for $120 and R9 270 for $130. But since your budget is $150, the cards at that price at BestBuy are simply awful. I really don't know what to recommend you if you can't shop online in the US and can't buy used cards.
R9 270X is
44% faster than a 750Ti at 1080P which means if you are shopping at BestBuy the 270X is the better performance buy. In GPU demanding titles, you'll see most of that but in CPU limited titles an R9 270x and 750Ti will perform similarly. This is because each of your cores (in the quad-core configuration) cannot get as much work done per clock cycle as say a 4.1Ghz Core i5 from Intel.
Think about it this way -- say we have an 18-wheeler-AMD truck that can travel at 4.1Ghz, and it can only carry 10 tons of cargo. On a parallel road an 18-wheeler-Intel truck has more horsepower so it can travel at 4.1Ghz but carry an extra trailer with 80% of more towing capacity as a result of the extra towing capability offered by a superior engine in the 18-wheeler. The end result is the 18-wheeler-Intel truck with a trailer that carries 8 tons can carry a total of 18 tons at 4.1Ghz.
You cannot just directly compare the amount of work that an AMD CPU does at 4.1Ghz to a modern Intel Haswell processor clocked at 4.1Ghz. The way the modern Intel core processes data and performs calculations/predictions is much faster/more efficient per each clock cycle.
