Looking around quickly it APPEARS that it is not your machine but rather just a poor game. Have you tired ANY game patches or tweaks at all or are you just focusing on what you think may be a hardware issue?

Here is a quote from one UT3K site-

"**I was planning to update this section to become an Unreal 2k3 Tweaking section. But when I saw how slow Unreal 2k3's engine was .. I was immediately turned-off so I decided not to buy the game. Although yes its graphics quality is good, the same quality can also be seen with other games ... but c'mon ... this game is not playable at 1024x768 with a system equipped with a GF3 card! What the hell is wrong with u PC programmers?!

There are hundreds more
