Can my GTX 650 1GB run this game?

[meta]

Specs:
Nvidia GTX 650 1GB
Intel i5-3330 3.0GHz
8GB RAM
Monitor:1280 x 1024

Can I at least run medium setting with stable 30+ fps? Or even nearly 60fps?
Thanks for all the respond.

it's similar to my setup (i have GTX 660 and a real old i7) and works just fine with shadows lowered.
game gets slow when my city grows a lot (100K pop)

oh make sure you have a 64bit OS or it wont work

I have an ASUS Laptop with i5-2410M 2,3 GHz, 8 GB RAM and a Geforce GT540M with 2GB.
I can run the game, but just with low details, but I am very lucky to can play this game!

My settings:
- 1280x720 fullscreen
- shadow quality: off
- shadow length: very short
- texture quality: low
- level of detail: low
- anisotropic filtering: disabled
- anti-aliasing: disabled

On a 400 population map, I have between 25-40 fps,
on a 60.000 population map I have between 10-20 fps. (not really much... but better than not can play this game! :D )

20fps is playable, maybe not the nicest looking but as he says better than nothing.

I love this game too much, as could become sick ;)

the gtx 650 would play this well. Its quite a well optimised game. Especially at that resolution

Games like this don't need high framerates to be playable. It's not a twitch shooter or racing game where framerate matters.

I take it you can't watch, TV, Films, youtube videos without being sick either then?
20-30fps works in a game like this, again not the nicest looking or smoothest experience but certainly playable. Even 12fps would still just about work (barely), anything less and the game just feels too laggy and is pretty much in unplayable territory.

If 30fps is making you sick, it sounds like either your brightness is too high or you're sitting too close to the screen.

Yup, fps doesn't really matter, but appearance does. I don't mind how it looks or how fast it runs while I'm building the city. In fact, when it does slow down at around 150k pop for me, it actually helps.
Once, I'm done with the city and I want to take some good screenshots or a make a video, then I want it looking as best it can.
I can show you what I can achieve.
This train ride is at 30 fps and takes you around my Colossal Circle City of 318k population at the time. I use a GTX560Ti. Admittedly, the ride doesn't go through the centre which would have slowed it, but then I did also use post processing FX and all graphics settings are on high to highest.
