The problem is people still believe that it is the video memory which tells weather the card is weak or not, this is 100% wrong, a 512 MB VGA card maybe much faster than a 2 GB VGA card, its not the Vram, its the memory bandwidth, pixel and texel rate and weather its GDDR5 or DDR3,DDR2, you might get a 2 GB weak video card that can't even handle its memory.....tell us your budget so we can help, and no getting a higher Vram won't help you in games unless you are running multi monitors with high resolutions...but again the card must be powerful enough to handle that much amount of memory......companies just add more RAM for weak cards so they can sell them.

So let us know your full system spec, games you want to play, and your budget

the 6670 comes in a 2gb model but a 6770 1GB will easily beat it
