Summary

Reasons to consider GeForce GTX 260

Based on an outdated architecture (Nvidia Tesla), there are no performance optimizations for current games and applications
PhysX support, however PhysX performance on newest games may be poor

Reasons to consider GeForce GTX 750

127 watts lower power draw. This might be a strong point if your current power supply is not enough to handle the GeForce GTX 260 .
This is a much newer product, it might have better long term support.
Higher theoretical gaming performance, based on specifications.
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Based on an outdated architecture (Nvidia Maxwell), there may be no performance optimizations for current games and applications

GeForce GTX 750

HWBench recommends GeForce GTX 750

Based on theoretical specifications.
