I've got a Geforce FX 5600 Ultra graphics card with 256 mb of ram.
What size should the aperture size be ? 256 ? does it matter at all?

It determines the max main system memory to use when the video card
doesn't have enough, a situation you shouldn't encounter until far
into the future when the card is too slow by that point. Just leave
it at default, it isn't going to affect performance. Default is
usually 64-128MB, maybe 256MB on some newer boards.
