Best answer

The DDR5 card will be faster. Both cards are PCIe version 2.1 there have been no video issues in the past with those in boards with older 1.x slots. Depending on your motherboards slot version you might be better of with this version 2.0 card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6814102870

The DDR5 will definitely be notably faster. I would recommend the 2.0 card rolli linked as well.

Do you need the VGA port on the Sapphire you linked? No? Go with rolli59's.
