Hi there!
I don't think Magento is a good choice given you're not a programmer. It is powerful, indeed, but their wish to pack it with features resulted in Magento's becoming a bit too monstrous. As a result- very resource-hungry, requiring a well-tuned VPS server - or it will be as slow as a snail.

I think Opencart is not a bad choice, it's more light-weight.

As X-Cart employee I am also tempted to recommend that you take a look at a free edition of X-Cart 5, because with this platform you will always be up-to-date ( the upgrades of a free lifetime license are free too, and the new versions are released quarterly). But it shines when you need a self-hosted solution that you will be able to customise wide and deep AND preserve the ability to upgrade the store easily, even a modified one. As a non-developer you probably won't appreciate this very feature. So I have something interesting up the sleeve to recommend you instead.

Take a look at Ecwid, especially if you already have a website - Ecwid is not a self-hosted platform but a widget that can be built in to almost any existing website in 5 minutes ( be it WP, Joomla, Drupal, Wix, Facebook page or dozens and dozens of other platforms/engines). And I LOVE their support.
