I like the look of the second one more: IMHO Boromir CofWT is too expensive for a 600 point list, I feel he comes into his own in higher points games where you can get him on horse with a lance and shield, then he becomes a beast. Perhaps take the spears of the basic warriors and give them to the rangers, then you can have a front line of MT warriors supported by F4 Fountain Court and get F4 support from the rangers if you need it. I would also take Madril over Cirion; D6 and a shield is alright but he'll get wounded on 5's by S4, as will Madril. I also find Madril's special rule to be more useful across the scenarios. Also, have you not given Faramir heavy armour or is this a typo? If you haven't got the points then drop the shields on 5 of the knights and buy him the heavy armour, D7 over D6 is a huge boost, whereas the D6 to D5 for the knights is still 5's to wound for S4. Hope this helps.

I like the first list quite a bit. Boromir might seem expensive for 600 pts but I've had great success with him even at 500 pts. He is hard to stop with his D7, 6 might/fight and 3's in all the right places.

I would recommend finding the points to upgrade the Captain of Minas Tirith to Faramir (heavy armour, shield, lance and horse/armored horse). He is a fantastic mid-range hero and does a great job leading cavalry. For some more tips and tricks on Gondor check out the DCHL video on the topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=prAg8QqQdYk
