Neither will support the latest and greatest games with that memory, beyond that the actual cards in question are still unknown. With only that info and all else being equal of course I'd go for the higher memory.

You'll need to provide more information for us to accurately help you in deciding... For example:
How much memory will be good for what? What are you going to use this for? Gaming, video authoring, just plain 'ol word processing...?

We can't recommend a card without knowing what you want it for, as well as what sort of budget you're working with?

For me, I have 2 512MB cards with SLI, and they do great for me.. but I play a lot of games.

Out of the two that you have listed, I'd go for the higher memory. Although, if this is a new system, neither of them are worth installing if you intend on playing games!
