I'll say that while my system could certainly be better, it's handling the Carmack onslaught.

Agreed. I run:

AMD 1900+
512 PC2100
GeForce 4 Ti 4400


Everything at stock speeds. I run 800x600, medium quality, and 2xAA. I'm seeing 40 - 50 FPS, down to the low 30s during combat.

Plenty playable, and plenty good lookin', in other words.

Although most CANT run the highest settings, almost all CAN play this game comfortably. The game scales very well.

My relevant bits of my system are a 3.0C @ 3.6GHz , a 9800 Pro, and 1GB of PC4000.

1024x768
High settings.
2x AA
4x AF

I average 42 FPS.

This game looks f'ing beautiful.

My system sucks ass. Radeon 9600XT just can't cut it. At 2x AA, 2x AF, 1024x768, lowest quality, I get ok frame rates until I start shooting stuff.

When running "timedemo demo1", my computer gets 20.9fps.

The level of intellect in the video forum is dropping at an astonishing rate.

LOL. Anyway calm down man, since you can't do nothing about it. The only hting you can achieve is being "bad" in their eyes.
Just chill and try to enjoy it...

My system rocks doom 3. NEver ever drops below 30FPS (and some fool on ebay sold me this brand new ultra for sugeested retail price of $499). Seriously, this card rocks for Doom. Only thing thats slowed it down so far is the Dam level in Farcry (where the lava is)

P4 3ghz
1Gb Corsair XMS
AB Audigy 2
Albatron GeForce 6800 Ultra

Now concentrate. Focus on your front neck muscles and ever so gently contract them. You see your accustomed to tilting you head back and looking down the slope of your nose. Stop pointing fingers and insulting us. You sound like a boring old man.

And if you can't handle me talking to you like this, or anyone else for that matter, don't be so judgemental and make these types of comments. :beer:
