Let's start a thread to chronicle people's Bioshock performance, using it as a proxy for UT3. Please post whether or not it ran for you and what kinds of frame rates you had, if you can tell, and let us know what video card and processor you have and how much RAM you have.

Well, I can tell you after 2 mins that a 6600 is not going to cut it.

Since my x700 Pro doesn't support Pixel Shader 3.0, the graphics in game don't render.

The game ran fine on my system, however, I was prompted to download newer Beta Drivers for my nVidia card. The game was playable on the highest settings, but was obviously much easier to play in lower optimized settings. The beginning scene in the water surrounded by fire blew me away.

- Intel Pentium 4 with Hyper-Threading technology 3.8 GHZ
- nVidia GeForce 6800 GTO 256MB
- 2GB DDR2 RAM
