BioShock Has Arrived

[Yoda9864]

Well, I played the demo last night on my PC and it ran smoothly (35-45 fps) on my system. I was playing it at 1680x1050 with everything maxed out, which makes me very happy in the pants.

My specs at a glance so you can guesstimate your performance:
nVidia 8800gts 640mb
Core 2 Duo e6600
2gb of Corsair eXtreme RAM
Win Xp


One note, my CPU is set to overclock itself up to about 2.9ghz under heavy stress. However, I didn't overclock my video card at all.

Also, when I was installing the demo, it said that the game was optimized for a dual core system and that if you had single core you'd want in excess of a 2.6 ghz chip.

Otherwise, I liked the game very much. It has a great atmosphere to it. At many times I found myself just walking around looking at all the different random shit they put in there. The graphics are extremely beautiful.

Do you have water cooling, or are fans enough? That automatic overclocking bit, is that a feature of your motherboard, or something with software, or what? Which mobo do you have?

This game is awesome.

I have yet to encounter my first big daddy, haven't been playing for too long though.
