That decision depends on where you're actually going to be living. The rmsp is a great deal if you're in lake or summit counties, or nearby. The 5 mtn pass is good if you're going to be close to Keystone/Breck and within decent driving distance of Vail/Beave. Be aware that I70 does close between Summit county and Vail quite a lot. And I'm not sure how much you'll enjoy Breck unless all you like are groomers. Keystone is a little better, but is very terrain park oriented. A-Basin would by far be the best mountain on that pass.
IMHO, after being here and having a look at these mountains, you're best value if you really want to have fun and avoid the crowds would be to by the rmsp + an A-Basin pass (they're pretty dang cheap). You could hit Loveland on occasion, and the day tickets are only around $50.
