Which is better?

The 745 should be slightly better. And by slightly, I really mean slightly.

They're both pretty average cards you would expect to find on an OEM build.

 

I would personally choose whatever card has the most vRAM, but according to GPUBoss and Game-Debate, the 745 outperforms the 250.

Passmark is a terrible site and should not be trusted.

Why not? I'm interested now.

Me too. Tell us. I know, it's not real world but that's the point in static comparison.

 

 

Passmark is pretty reliable.

 

 

Passmark is an awesome benchmark. Just not a good benchmark for gaming (the OP never mentioned gaming)

 

I disagree with Passmark being a terrible site but the benchmark is extremely biased towards Nvidia for some reason. The site is only useful if comparing AMD to AMD or Nvidia to Nvidia.

Intel i7 3770K [] Asrock Z77 Extreme 4 [] MSI R9 290X 4GB [] 16GB  G.SKILL 2133Mhz [] Crucial MX100 256GB [] WD Black 1TB [] XFX Pro 850W [] Fractal Define R3 [] Func MS-3 R2 [] Corsair K60 []

Nvidia's architecture performs better at this specific test just like AMD performs better at others. It's not a biased benchmark, it's just different cards that perform differently.
