Well I use a macbook which has at most half of the lowest spec of both of those cards, and this is shared with the main system RAM of 2gig, I don't find it difficult to use modul8 to do some fairly complex tasks, maybe 8 layers plus pixel effects (not core image or FF) etc. and that kind of thing, all at 640x480 pjpeg footage, so either of those will be fine for simple stuff, but I imagine that if you want to get into the more advanced stuff or any of the effects in the future then the 256mb card will be the most future proof.
