The R7 250 is a better card as compared to the 750. The AMD has 2 GB video memory, while the Nvidia only has 1 GB. The AMD's clock speed is a trivial amount lower than that of the Nvidia, however, the AMD supports Crossfire, and the 750 does not support SLI.

However, the Nvidia card does have more ports, and a lower TDP. If those things are essential in your rig, then go for it. Otherwise, the AMD is the better choice.

TDP means thermal design power. It's the amount of power it takes to use the GPU. My bad, should have clarified.
