dude you can't even run regular Doom 3 @ max specs with those settings lmao

[MIDNIGHTRIDER775]

Nah regular Doom 3 isnt though to max out to the extreme.

As always, John C made a amazign engine. I could pretty much max it out at 1280x1024 with my old 6800Ultra back in the days.

Now a 8800GTX or higher is enough to play this mod maxed. And I mean with EVERY possible filter in the Nvidia Control Panel enabled.

[Shorty20122012]

well my 9800gx2 drops to 35 fps with 16X AF and 16X AA and ultra quality at 1680X1050 res sometimes, so I don't see how that would be possible to max it all out with all these new features

[MIDNIGHTRIDER775]

Its a lot about your CPU and RAM as well. Even the HDD matters at some points.

And of course the clock speed of everything.

My system is pretty much overclocked as far as you can get without liquid nitrogen.

But still, a 9800GX2 should give you a solid 60 frames at these settings on regular Doom.

My 8800 does, even when is not overclocked.

Sounds to me like a CPU or RAM bottleneck. Or maybe your chipset doesnt like SLI very much, Intel anyone ?

[Shorty20122012]

hmm well im running a wolfdale 3.16 with 4 gigs 1066. my friend has the same core and is running 2 9800 gtx's in SLI and had the same problem @ 16AA X 16AF. We both have to lower settings to 8X8 so I don't kno. Pretty gay either way for a 4 year old game

[MIDNIGHTRIDER775]

Must be something with the GX2 drivers then. SLI often creates issues and sometimes ends up slower than a single card.

I run it with x16 AA and even every other filter in the Nvidia Panel.

With a single 8800GTX, over clocked or not.

Your CPU and RAM should be more than enough also.

I have a Quad @ 4Ghz but the engine doesnt make use of Quad Cores, so I dont think thats the reason why.

It must be either the chipset or not very well optimized drivers from Nvidia for the ID Tech 4 engine.

Dude in case you magicly come back to life on christmas this might change your mind

2.9 ghz dual core

ati radeon hd 4850 oc direct x 10.1

4gb ram

[FFSTURM]

I've an Ati 2400 hd pro and works with all the doom 3 mods out of there with no problems :/

[chevezez]

by the time this is finished it wont matter cuz doom 4 will be out using the id tech 5 engine

[fsx20022004]
