amd r7 250 vs r7 260 oc

[kwank-gb]

I have a 720p native monitor and probably won't be changing it for a while. I wont be playing bf4 at 1080p as the visuals will be fuzzy. For my build i'm getting an amd athlon x4 740. Would the 260 oc be too much for 720p gaming(medium-high)? Should i get the 250?
Here are the graphics cards

R7 260 oc: http://m.ebuyer.com/?action=searchresults&q=amd+r7+260+oc&submitSearch=Search#/663144
Thanks for all your answers in advance

always try buying the fastest gpu you can for your build. even at low frame rates the cards with more stream prosssors will be faster as it can do more work per clock cycle. the 250 card has 300 or so and the 260 has 800.
so the 260 is a lot more gaming card per dollar then the 250 is.

With both you can play medium-high, it depends on your CPU, Ram and Power Supply.
If your power supply is 300-350w I recommend you go for 250, 260 may exceed in power usage (also depends which cpu you have).
I think I saw MSI R7 260 for 86$ on amazon and newegg, 3 bucks cheaper than most R7 250 Gddr5 1G ones. Choice is yours. (260 would perform 10-40 fps better than 250 depending games.
