Welcome to the forums!

The GT430 would be the better choice for you for three specific reasons.

1) It has the same amount of shaders as the 8800GTS 320 (96) and they are clocked quite a bit higher.

2) It requires much less power to operate.

3) Mercury Hardware Acceleration requires at minimum 768MB VRAM to operate; the 8800GTS 320 only has 320MB.

Be aware though that you will have to perform a quick hack to enable CUDA acceleration.
You can find guides Like This all over the web.

Best luck!
