    Overwhelming Power of Doom3!

    Doom3 will have the best graphics in gaming history. No modern graphics GPU will be able to handle it at 60FPS!
    Not even the All mighty GF FX5950 Ultra & ATI Radeon 9800 XT!


    Time to throw away your old PCs!
    The apocalypse is coming!!!!
    And if you Infidels don’t upgrade, then you will burn in the fiery pits of hell!!!

    Yeah, my Ti4800 handles it quite well ... not 60fps but playable.

    Funny how we seem to read the same articles Howard

    I got the alpha and it ran about the 50-60 mark and was ok except when you fired the machine gun and the smoke effect out of the barrel kicked in then it dropped a bit.

    Does anyone know if it's going to support Dual Processors like the Q2 and Q3?

    What's the equivalent in Doom 1 & 2?

    Aren't there going to be any out door scenes in Doom3?
    The whole game takes place in the dark corridors of Deimos station?

    yep, pointless thread, the game will run smoothly on all well/high spec'ed machines.

    id change the thread title to "Lets talk about Doom3"

    3D Mark 2k1 - 20661

    If you get a customer, or an employee, who thinks he's Charles Bronson, take the butt of your gun and smash their nose in.
