  1. Yeah just fix that hard drive. In terms of the video card, the 5700 should do you fine. If you have the dosh lying around though, go for the 5900 so it will last you a bit longer.

     

    Everything seems to check out, that CPU could be overclocked easily too ;) , well, thats what I would be thinking when I bought a CPU like that!

  2. LZ: you actually understood the post? :P Im lost

     

    From what I gather, I think youre asking if it would run properly? Mine runs on medium settings at 640x480, my specs are as follows:

     

    AMD AthlonXP 2100+ (1.7Ghz)(yes I clocked it back for all those playing at home, it was running at 2.3Ghz but a few of my fans are having power supply problems for now ;) )

    512meg DDR RAM

    GeForce4 Ti4200 Turbo

     

    Basically, its a yes, Doom3 would run on your system :D

  3. there are config tweaks who boost the performance off the game,

     

    If you unpack the pk4 files, and you delete the pk4 files then, it will boost performance, but It will take longer to load a level.

     

    And in cfg file, you have to put something to 256 (think its cachemem or something) and it will boost too !!!

     

    Yeah there's a heap of optimisation guides out there from all the performance sites. Could never be bothered though, the only pak file I ever unzipped was the quake3arena one, since I was involved in a mod for it.

     

     

    @yoho: are you saying you can run the game smoothly at 800x600, I dont understand you exactly B)

  4. Well Ive just been playing the game in Windows aaall last night, and i can tell you it is bloody scary! and f**king awesome!!! I couldnt wait for the linux version, just had to install on WXP.

     

    Ive got a 1.8Ghz AMD, GF4 Ti4200 and it just runs on low quality settings at 640x480 rez. But damn its smooth

     

    This game *is* the next evolution in gaming, they call it love ;)

  5. Ive got a 128meg GF4 so Im looking forward to the slideshow too :D Might have to have a fiddle around with my fan bus, install a bigger HSF on the video card and clock her up a bit more.

     

    Its really good what id are doing with the scalable graphics and all. This feature really worked in Far Cry (keeping my fps smooth and constant_ and I expect it to work for Doom3 as well, since Carmack has so much more experience.

  6. steam is a bitch, whether you use it in cedega or not.

     

    It is working at the moment.... though it wasnt yesterday ;)

     

    steam for ya!

     

    iphitus

     

    nice to know you got steam working! :D

     

    Lets hope it stays working though, every thursday night must be a scary time

  7. Guess it's not really my place, but why are you worrying about 28.8k load times? Its not like many people have it anymore, and those who do probably dont realise pentium2's exist :P

     

     

    im hurt by that comment, i have a duron800 machine connected to the internet via dialup line that peaks at 380+bps. yes, its missing the letter k. only one telco services our area and their lines suck. :(

     

    ciao!

     

    *cough* is that my fault? :lol:

     

    Its just the way I work, Im more of a visual person, therefore I have more pics, and the way I see it, those with 380bps are a tiny minority. I know you probably wont like me saying that but thats the way it is :P

  8. Guess it's not really my place, but why are you worrying about 28.8k load times? Its not like many people have it anymore, and those who do probably dont realise pentium2's exist :P And as for 56k, it really doesnt seem like that bigger load time.

     

    Good luck with the design :D

  9. Someone mentioned there will be a linux version released soon after, does anyone know if this linux client will be coming with a windows client or not?

     

    Since Im yet to find out if windows or linux runs by graphics card better, Id rather not have to pay for two different versions and just buy one with both clients on it (ie. ut2004)
