utilization of Vram is dependant on your resolution, from what you say, you run at most 720p, so 512mb would probably do, but going up to 1gb wont hurt if you plan on buying a new monitor in the future.

why are you looking into such old cards? you can find some good cards from 2 generations ago, eg gtx460 or radeon 5770 for fairly cheep these days.
