I have GT 240 1 Gb DDR5 and thinking of upgrading my budget is tight and I want a graphics card to have low power consumption and acceptable temperature range upto 60 C. As I am looking to save my self from high electricity bills and don't have a good cooling system.

I am thinking either r7 250 or gt 740, will it be considered an upgrade. I am looking to play current and upcoming games like Withcer 3, Batman Arkham Knight, GTA 5 at 1280x768 resolution with medium low settings.

Which one is better?

I can buy r7 260x or r7 250x but both have higher power consumption and high tempratures.
Can't afford gtx 750.

But can it be considered an upgrade in terms of practical performance in games. Nvidea shaders are 4 times more effectively used than R7 250 how large is performance gap like if I consider demanding game like Witcher 3 what will be the FPS difference like.
