It looks as though we will be upgrading to an Intel-based iMac, as my wife
needs to use software that won't run on a PowerPC G5.

(I know, it's a terrible thing...)

The question: How much does the video card affect photo processing? Will a
faster video card with more memory make Lightroom run better?

We don't use our computer for games.

The iMac comes with a built-in video card so you don't have any choices as to which card you use. However, as Godfrey says, the built-in cord in the 24" iMac is very good for photo processing work; I'm sure that you won't be disappointed if you get this model. However, the 20" iMac has a less capable LCD screen
than the 24", so get the latter if you can.

Regards, Jim
