DOOM 3 Requirements [Jul 20, 2004, 10:20 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Gamers,
check under hood because Doom 3 is coming on the Houston Chronicle discusses
system requirements for playing DOOM 3. In spite of Todd Hollenshead previously
deferring to the expertise of the programmers for hardware info
(story), these minimum requirements are apparently courtesy of
id's CEO:
• A 1.5-gigahertz Intel Pentium 4 chip or AMD Athlon 1500.
• 384 megabytes of memory.
• Two gigabytes of hard drive space.
• An nVidia GeForce 3 graphics card or better; or an ATI Technologies 8500 or better.
Go for the Koolance Exos or PC2C. Relatively cheap, relatively easy, good customer support, keeps things nice and chilly with no real advance knowledge needed. A very excellent entry point, speaking as somebody who used to run one.
My 3200+, stock HSF, running Seti@Home all day every day, keeps steady at around 120F, and everything seems to be perfectly stable...
Wishing the 70C load temps on my video card were lower and that Artic Cooling had the Rev4 of the VGA Silencer out NOW instead of in two months,
