DOOM3 + Geforce2 MX!
After reading about all the high flyers with their fast cpu's and flashy
5900's and 6800's, I thought I'd post my experience with my lowly system. AthlonXP 2000+ Geforce 2 MX 64Mb 512Mb RAM I used auto quality settings which pretty much sets it all on minimum and 640x480. How does it play? Quite well actually! There are some parts where it turns into a bit of a slidshow and I have to fire randomly hoping I'll hit something, but for the most part it's fine although it is the darkest game I have ever played. Very scary! How do I do a timedemo so I can post the results? I'm sure there's a few people out there with less than speedy systems who want to see if it's worth getting DOOM3 I'll be getting an FX5700 on the weekend, so I'll compare then cyas -- Jafar Calley -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- d+ s-:+ a C++++ L++ E--- W++ N++ w-- PE- t* 5++ R+ !tv D+ G e* h---- x? ------END GEEK CODE BLOCK------ Registered Linux User #359623 http://fatcatftp.homelinux.org |

While at main menu of game, pull down console by holding down these 3 keys together --- ctrl -- Alt --- ~ (tilde key) 2. type: timedemo demo1 3. Wait for results 4. repeat number 2 (as first result will be slower to load textures intially). |
