It depends on the software you use, some graphics software does not make use of the GPU at all other than if the o/s uses it, since they use the os for their graphics handling. You probably wouldn't need 512mb if you want to edit a 20mb image. 128 is probably fine. After all, these apps usually store the image in main memory where they operate on it with the CPU.
