I'm sorry that I'm clueless about things like this but I need to know which of these cards is the better one.

Over a quick glance I'd say the first one as it has more dedicated memory, but I'm not extremely techy like some other people who might be able to give you a better answer.

The GTX is superior to the GTS.

In fact, the GTS 250 is only named such because it make it look like it can compete with a GTX card. It's a 9800GTX. (A quick google reveals such, anyway).
