Probably, but it'll likely be well below 60fps.

i got the 6770m with 512Mb and i had to play it 1920x1080 even then it stuttered at times, with you having 1Gb of ram it might run ok.

i had steady 30fps @1920x1080 but it would jump to 60fps at times but never went below 30fps.

Take a look at this performance test. The Radeon HD 6750 is a rebadged HD 5750 so it has virtually identical specs and performance. I don't know how well the Mac version of ME3 runs and the test uses the Windows version so to be safe, expect 30-40 FPS with everything maxed out.

A big fat no if you want to run ME3 in OS X, but it should work in Windows 7 (with Boot Camp). Don't take my word for it though.

It runs fine in Windows 8 CP with Boot Camp.
