Euronymous Posted May 17, 2003 When Doom 3 was first announced predicted min specs where GF 3, 256 mg ram 1.5 gig p4 or something along those lines. Is it not therefore reasonable to assume that therefore Most people will be able to play D3 without significant h/w upgrades. On another note i dont know if anyone has seen the benchmarks at [h] ocp but it they show the FX 5900 ultra as THE doom card. 0 Share this post Link to post

I already have a creative 6.1 and a tv card...hmmm... the best is that I have not to save up money...this will just cost the half of my monthly salery. he he. 0 Share this post Link to post

Ubik Posted May 17, 2003 My 1.73GHz AthlonXP + 512 MB PC2700 RAM + Radeon 8500 64 MB won't play it spectacularly, but it should play pretty well all the same. 0 Share this post Link to post
Little Faith Posted May 17, 2003 Lüt said:Aren't you in jail? :P If you are referring to the tale of two unfortunate rock stars (which the :P indicates) it was Euronymous that died from a fatal skull fracture and Count Grishnack that went to jail for having caused that specific skull fracture with a dagger. Well, Count Grishnack went on to make some pretty cool lo-fi ambient with some equipment he brought to his cell, but the loss of Euronymous is truly a shame. 0 Share this post Link to post

Radea` Posted May 18, 2003 Doom is using the full capabilities of DirectX-7-level hardware (Yes, I know its OpenGL), so thats GeForce256/ATI Radeon and up for minimum requirements. It was first presented at macworld on a GF3 :/ 0 Share this post Link to post

Nope, the game began development targeted at a ONE gigahertz geforce ONE minumum, your baseline specs are WAY too high 0 Share this post Link to post
