the closest thing to a demo right now is trying out CounterStrike:Source or the stress test, but i don't think those would really be the best measure. from the way it sounds, however, the engine scales really well and people with older systems are getting good results. maybe if you post your system specs here, someone with a similar rig can tell you how the game works for them.

Right now I am running the game on this system.
AMD Athlon XP 1900(1.7GHz I think)
512MB PC 2100 DDR RAM
Nvidia Geforce 3 Ti 200 64MB
SB Audigy(the original)
80GB 7200RPM HD
and it runs perfect( ok a very tiny bit of lag very a second when driving vehicles) on these settings
Resolution is 1024x768
and all details are set on medium
Hope that gives you an idea.

You should be able to play in 800X600 with most details.
My system is pretty similar to yours, except I have 512mb of RAM and a Gforce 5900XT. I can play it at 1024x768 with a mix of medium and high details.
