Is 512 Mb Video card is Enough for 1280*1024 Resolution

[Sam Fisher 1]

Hi guys
I m planning to buy used 5670 512Mb(DDR5) Video card from Ali express
My monitor resolution is 1280*1024. I m wondering is 512 Mb of Vram enough to run games such as Crisis 3 ?
Please help

It won't run Crysis 3 very well at that resolution

Hmm, I think a 1280*1024 resolution might require more than 512mb of vram.

1gb would be better imo. Are there any other options for a vid card? Maybe a 6670? You won't be able to max out crysis 3, but at least you'll be able to play on med settings.

EDIT: I should've started out by asking what your budget was.

At that resolution the 6670 would probably play it with low-med settings, med-high at 720p. The 5670 would run it okay, though you'll experience dips when it runs out of memory.

I would get the hd6570 if you're trying to keep costs down. It can be overclocked using free software to be almost as good as the hd6670.
