Reasons to consider GeForce GTX 590

80% higher gaming performance.

Supports PhysX

Based on an outdated architecture (Nvidia Fermi), there are no performance optimizations for current games and applications

Reasons to consider GeForce GTX 750 Ti

305 watts lower power draw. This might be a strong point if your current power supply is not enough to handle the GeForce GTX 590 .

This is a much newer product, it might have better long term support.

Supports PhysX

Supports G-Sync

Supports ShadowPlay (allows game streaming/recording with minimum performance penalty)

Based on an outdated architecture (Nvidia Maxwell), there may be no performance optimizations for current games and applications

HWBench recommends GeForce GTX 590

The GeForce GTX 590 is the better performing card based on the game benchmark suite used (2 combinations of games and resolutions).
