both cards can run minecraft 60 fps+ no problem but with shaders both would get averaged minimum at 30 fps (note that is the minimum fps w/ shaders, not sure of the average fps)

Usually minecraft frame rates are super unstable. 160 fps usually ensures completely smooth performance.

Osoclocker and Psychoticdare are right. With either of those cards you're going to max out around 100fps and you might be able to record with fraps. You'll want to save money and get a 760 or 770 for max performance.
