MSI's N560GTX-Ti Hawk vs Asus' ENGTX560Ti448DC2/2DIS/1280MD5?

[Acomputernewbie]

I'm not sure on which one is better. I have 0% knowledge about graphics cards and do not understand what stats are to be compared here. I've picked these two because they seem like a good choice. I want to run most retail games at the highest res/settings possible. Also what is an "8 phase VRM" and do these cards have them? If not, what comparable cards have them? I'll also be using Maya. Thanks!

system components:

Intel 2600k
Corsair ax850
MSI P67A-GD65

the 448 is the more powerful!

They both really perform like a 570, but the asus is a better card.

It's all a matter of CUDA cores:
GTX560 - 336 CUDA cores
Ti - 384 CUDA cores
Ti-448 - 448 CUDA cores
GTX570 - 480 CUDA cores

The Ti-448 is basically a slightly crippled GTX570 giving near 570 performance at a substantial discount.
