I really wouldn’t choose either of those cards. There is nothing about the G41 chipset that precludes you from using a current gen card. You don’t need to choose an older generation card to get compatible performance. I have a G41 running a E7500 with a HD7770 and it runs great. In the same price point you are looking at a 7750 would be much better than either listed card.

But between the two listed, go with the DDR5.

If you can, reimage with Win 7 64 bit. You wont believe the difference it makes.
 
Just to be sure what PSU is it? I wouldn't recommend either of those cards. Like groundrat said, a 7750 is probably your best bet, the 7770 is faster for a bit more, but if its a prebuilt pc it most might not have the PCIe connector for it.

Not much else I can say except be sure the PSU can handle the load, groundrat covered almost all the bases. :)
