Epic has done a great job tweaking Unreal Engine 3 for UT3.  There's a
lot of problems with the game but with all the bitching I don't see
too many people saying it won't play on their hardware as long as the
hardware is relatively current.  Outside of the memory increase
suggested by GP, you should be good to go.

But... I *do* run a God box.  :)
