I would have thought that ought to be ok, but see if you can swap with
someone else to see if another card has similar problems or not - ideally
one that is listed as being supported. S3 can be good - even on a tight
budget.

To be honest there are a lot of video cards which rival or exceed that spec
these days.
apart from the swap space of course.

Your descriptive powers are good - I know exactly what you mean - I've been

I'm out of ideas beyond other cards (it worked for me) - but others (older
and wiser) might help yet.
