For mid 2002, try to buy a rig like this one :
# PIII 933 minimum (this one is hard to predict)
# 256 MB RAM minimum
# GeForce3 or better
# A soundcard with support for either EAX or OpenAL
# 1.5 GB free on your HD (or more)

Zaldron those specs you listed, would the be the absolute minimum specs or the recommended specs for the New Doom?
To everyone else: Which chipset is better?
(A)Pentium 3
(B)Pentium 4
(C)AMD Thunderbird or
(D)AMD Athlon.
I ask several people and I get very mixed opinions,
Some say AMD is good, Others say it sucks.
The same for Intel.
My planned new computer is a Pentium 3 1.4Ghz (maybe)
What is your opinion?
One Other thing......... does anyone know when the GeForce3 is coming out? Is there a possibility of anyone knowing the Australian release date?
This is My Signature.
Because I couldn't think one.

Pentium 4 is crap. It crashes to often to be good. The AMD thunderbird is the best chip from those 4. The Pentium3 comes second, then the Athlon.
I would advise you to go for a TBird 1.3 Ghz

It's probably because it's running Win98 or WinME, I doubt it has anything to do with the processor.

Thats what I was thinking, but so many different opinions & I was confused. Thanks.
My Planned Computer Is:
Pentium 3 1.5Ghz (TBird Still option)
256Mb Ram (512Mb Possibly)
12*10*32 CDRW
1.44Mb Floppy
GeForce 2 Ultra
40GB HDD
And other necessary bits & pieces.
This for two reasons:
(A) Maximum Performance for Doom ]|[
(B) Longest Life.
I don't wanna upgrade again for at least 3 years.

Here's the deal...
The P4 is the absolute winner in the "hard-core" category,
but is also the most expensive.
The P3 with a 133 Mhz bus is very powerful, in contrast with
the Athlon(Duron or Thunderbird, either one).
The Athlon, at 100 Mhz bus (let's say at 1000 Mhz) is slower than a P3 1000 Mhz 133 Mhz bus...but the chipset KT133A is out-there.With the new chipset, you can do a overclock to the Athlon.
The new Athlon with 133/266 Mhz bus appears to be the best processor so far, with the best raport quality/price.

Zaldron basically posted the reccomended specs for the game (not for FULL expirience but for a good one)
"We've been doing hacks and tricks for years but now we'll be able to do things we've been wanting to do for a long time" Carmack said. "For instance every light has its own highlight and every surface casts a shadow like in the real world. "Everything can behave the same now and we can apply effects for every pixel."
