How much performance increase will you see when the X2s come out with Doom3

I don't think Doom 3 in multi-threaded . . . so none. Unless you are playing HL2 and Doom 3 at the same time . . .

Even if it is multi-threaded it'll probably be a small performance increase because I would bet all they did was put the audio decoding and AI in seperate threads, like UT2K4 did.

From the benchmarks I've seen, it's not that great. You get a massive bonus in Half-life 2 though.

Im pretty sure there is a seperate sound thread for Doom 3. Something about not using Soundblaster tech.
