My new PC and Doom 3

[BobRedthorp]

I just bought my new custom built PC, it has an AMD Athlon 64 3000+, Nvidia Ti4600 and 1GB of RAM,

 

Can anyone tell me if this is enough to make Doom 3 look good at all or have I just wasted my money,

Your graphics card is probably gonna be your main bottleneck....You should be able to play it fine on Medium and maybe even high but with some slowdowns

Doesn't the TI4600 only have 64 mbs or VRAM? But since you have 1GB of RAM, you could probably play at a decent speed on medium setting.

ah, cool, but was the athlon 64 3000+ a good choice?

Oh ok, then you can play at medium as decent speed thanks to your processor and RAM.

imo, a GeForce 4 4600 is badass.

 

Should be able to run it at high, but it might lag during certain scenes or when opening doors.

You processor is fine. I brought the exact same one for a PC I recently built for my Parents.

Doom 3 runs best on AMD! FEAR! FEAR!

really, the guy in the store said it was a bargin for the price, I thought he was trying to rip me off

Well, with me, I have a 9800 Pro 128, a 64 3200+ and 1 GB of ram. I've played it on Ultra, and it lagged when ever i opened doors and certain scenes. So i'm baseing it on that.
