Damn...I may start getting back in to PC gaming. PEople tell me...Does Doom 3 still run like shit these days? :)

Sounds like you've been out of it for a while

I remember Doom 3....the game that made everyone buy new video cards

Doom 3 runs just fine on ultra settings with the majority of video cards sold today. (Except for maybe a 8400gs)

 


Ok...Ima get a 9600GT...I have AMD 4400 dual core...1 gig of ram. But from the sound of things Doom 3 is long forgotten and crysis has taken its place as the CPU melter.

A 9600GT should be almost on par with an 8800gt, which is what I have. My processor is similar to yours as well (3800x2 OC'd to 2.5), but I have 2 gigs of RAM. Doom 3 is a breeze at 1080p and Ultra settings on my PC, so you should have no problems there, and you'll be able to play all of the source engine games well enough---

 

-but you might have problems with Crysis though. My PC has BIG problems with that game on anything but lower settings, in Vista at least. I'll need to try XP again. It'll be a few years before the average computer is able to play it fluently...
