Hello and welcome to the forums
For resolutions like 1024x768 and 1280x1024 you can play most games with good settings,but for higher resolutions you need a more powerful card

It also depends what the other specs of your computer are, if you are putting that card into a system that has a duel core processor it should be able to keep up and not bottleneck at the above resolutions. However if you have a older single core processor ( A pentium 4 for example) then the processor won't be able to keep up, and you will not be able to run games well at all even at lower resolutions.

What is your processor Ram etc?

I say spend a little more for a 5770 unless you're using a low resolution like 1024x768 or 1280x1024. A 5670 is decent enough for low end gaming, but considering that you can get a much better card for a little more, so long as you have the PSU for it, a 5670 may not be the best choice.

i agree, 5770 is a much better option. please let us know the rest of the specs of your computer.
