BioShock was released in 2007. No published benchmark of BioShock is in our dataset yet, so every FPS figure on this page is an estimate. Steam lists Nvidia GeForce 6600 as the minimum graphics card, about what integrated graphics deliver today.

Frame rate cap: none on record. We have no record of an engine frame limit for BioShock, so our estimates assume it runs uncapped. V-Sync, an in-game limiter or your monitor's refresh rate can still hold it lower.

No measured data yet. We have not found a published benchmark of BioShock with a source we can link. The figures below come from our model and carry a ±30% band. How the estimate works.
